【I like dancing, too. 】
展覽論述＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿
長尾惠那的創作源自於日常生活中，那些微小時刻與細膩的不安感。場景越是平凡，反而更能激起一種奇異與幽默感。無論是漫不經心的言語或姿態、山與雲的關係，或手上爬過的昆蟲——這些看似尋常的瞬間常蘊含強烈印象。有時，這些熟悉的場景卻意外地展現出宛如「宇宙的秘密」般的浩瀚感。她試圖將這些感受具象化並予以保存於創作中。
在立體創作上，長尾惠那選用木材作為創作材料。木雕作為一項技藝深植於日本傳統文化，而藝術家則特意運用這種古典工法，刻寫當代感受。在她看來，木材曾是有生命的，被雕琢後卻依然持續呼吸，其介於生與死之間的曖昧狀態深深吸引著她。木材在乾燥過程中自然生成的變形及其不確定性，與藝術家在日常中察覺到的奇異與波動感相互呼應。藝術家刻意保留了作品表面的鑿痕，使日常動作的痕跡可視化，並透過這樣的形式，彰顯出單調、平凡與美的並存可能。
藝術家的角色為觀者提供一個獨特的濾鏡，引導他們在熟悉世界中發現那潛藏的奇異與幽默。透過這樣的體驗，期盼每個人能感受到自身所擁有的觀點廣度與情感深度。
The artistic practice of Ena Nagao is born from small moments and subtle feelings of discomfort encountered in everyday life. The more ordinary the scene, the more it can evoke a sense of strangeness or quiet humor. Casual words or gestures, the relationship between mountains and clouds, or an insect crawling on a hand—these seemingly mundane moments often hold strong impressions. Sometimes, such familiar occurrences unexpectedly reveal a vastness as if harboring a “secret of the universe.” Ena Nagao strives to capture and preserve these sensations in tangible form.
Ena Nagao uses wood as the material for her sculpture. Wood carving is a technique deeply rooted in Japanese tradition, and she deliberately uses this classical method to inscribe contemporary sensibilities. From the artist’s perspective, wood once held life and continues to breathe even after being cut, existing in an ambiguous state between life and death. Its uncertainty and tendency to warp unpredictably through drying resonate with the strangeness and fluctuations she senses in daily life. Ena Nagao intentionally leaves chisel marks on the surface of sculpture so that the accumulation of daily actions remains visible. Through this, the artist aims to demonstrate through form that monotony, ordinariness, and beauty can coexist.
The role of the artist is to offer viewers a different filter through which to discover the strangeness and humor lurking within the familiar world. Through this experience, the artist hope they can sense the breadth of perspectives and feelings each person holds.
