Hideko Nakatani
Artist
These artworks are mainly composed of abstract screens using acrylic paints and colored pencils,etc.
There are no titles for all works.
From the early days,my process has been based on trying to think as little as possible before, while and until I finish painting.
Lower my breathing rate, slowly walk away from words, and feel a deep, quiet space within.
Then, as if there were serenity and communication without thought, I will follow the inspiration and draw as honestly as possible to transfer the colors, shapes, and scenery I saw.
I'm happy that the work are coming from a place of peace of mind, tranquility, and peace that is shared by various people have somewhere.Even when looking at the same painting, it feels like everyone, including myself, is looking at a different painting.
It's really interesting when people who have seen my work talk about how they feel inside.
I treasure the shared and resonance that occurs between paintings and people, just like the artwork itself.

简介

First solo exhibition in 2006. Since then, I have been active mainly in solo exhibitions and participated in group exhibitions, art festivals, etc.
Based in Kanazawa City,Japan.
These artworks are mainly composed of abstract screens using acrylic paints and colored pencils,etc.
There are no titles for all works.
From the early days,my process has been based on trying to think as little as possible before, while and until I finish painting.
Lower my breathing rate, slowly walk away from words, and feel a deep, quiet space within.
Then, as if there were serenity and communication without thought, I will follow the inspiration and draw as honestly as possible to transfer the colors, shapes, and scenery I saw.
I have a kind of friendship with my paintings, and I call them "E-chan" . (A cute nickname. ”E“ stands for picture in Japanese.)
It's like a completely different being from me.But in reality, I don't know for sure.
E-chan want to talk directly to the people who see them.
I cannot stand between paintings and art viewers.
So, I cannot just come up with a title on my own.
E-chan's words are, of course, not a language.
What the art viewer feels and thinks is simply what E-chan's words are.
That's how paintings speak to the viewer. and they are gazing at the viewer.
I'm happy that the work are coming from a place of peace of mind, tranquility, and peace that is shared by various people have somewhere.Even when looking at the same painting, it feels like everyone, including myself, is looking at a different painting.
It's really interesting when people who have seen my work talk about how they feel inside.
I treasure the shared and resonance that occurs between paintings and people, just like the artwork itself.
