The Soul Trembles by Chiharu Shiota

Threads become tangled, intertwined, broken off, unraveled. They constantly reflect a part of my mental state, as if they were expressing the state of human relationships //
The Soul Trembles by Chiharu Shiota, Museum Macan Jakarta

So while I was in Jakarta, I also went to Museum Macan to see Chiharu Shiota's installation "The Soul Trembles", courtesy of Wilus who gave me a ticket! Thank you Wilus!! I haven't been to a museum in like... 10 years? I'm not sure when was the last time I went to one (if Angkor Wat is considered a museum then, 5 years hah). But I'm glad I went to see this installation. It's so amazing.

Personally I feel it's such an emotional-blowing one. The museum was quiet but Chiharu's installation was definitely visually deafening. It touches your heart, makes you feel a lot of things and think about her work as well. Personally I'm just awed by how Chiharu can put what's on her mind into these amazing artwork. Her dedication, her thoughts, and her passion manifests beautifully here.

Anyway here are some of my favourites! Here's to more museum visits in the future.
