Artist Moe Nakamura expresses enigmatic creatures—peeking out from the soil or adorned with plants, evoking distant memories—through sculptures and paintings. Gaining popularity after participating in a Taiwan art fair in 2014, she has since become a globally recognized figure, frequently invited to numerous exhibitions and art festivals both in Japan and abroad.
This book showcases around 100 of her sculptures and paintings, including her latest works, alongside essays by art historians and an original short story written by novelist Shinji Ishii. It offers a multifaceted exploration of the worldview and allure of Moe Nakamura’s creations.
