Abstract

This article reveals the conceptual content of the concept of “participatory practices” and presents the results of an analysis of selected works by contemporary Japanese artist Chiharu Shiota, known for creating large-scale installations and performances, as well as art paintings and sculptures. The main material of the artist is woolen threads, the main principle of the construction of the work is modular. The artist is often compared to a spider – from threads of black, white and red colors she spins huge labyrinth webs, into which from one to many homogeneous objects are often woven: chairs, dresses, shoes, keys, pieces of paper and so on. The authors of the article proposed a classification of works, on the basis of which a rather voluminous work of the artist is structured: by the principle of using threads, by the color of the threads, by the type of objects used, by topic, by the way the viewer interacts with the work.
