Daisuke Nagaoka

Known for his extremely detailed drawings, Daisuke Nagaoka also creates video work that utilizes the characteristics of the process of pencil drawing. On a single sheet of paper, the artist draws one image, erases it and draws the next scene. The video camera captures this several-hour-long process including the movement of Nagaoka's hand, and the footage is edited into a rhythmical drawing animation of about 10 minute long. The scenes transform and stories progress on a piece of paper.
Daisuke Nagaoka was born in 1973 and completed a MA at Wimbledon School of Art, London. Nagaoka lives and works in Tokyo. His recent exhibition includes "Awesome Residence" at Tokyo Wonder Site Hongo, 2007. Besides participating in exhibitions, he has been actively leading workshops.
