During the 1980s and 1990s, Enokura continued to explore the act of staining on cotton-fabric.
In these works, which are titled Intervention or Intervention (Story)  and are numbered sequentially, the artist typically contrasted smooth fields of black paint with unpainted fabric, sometimes drenching the entire surface.
In several canvases he used oil-soaked beams of lumber to mark the fabric—either affixing the beams to the work or leaning them against it.

Some works from this period feature shelves that support glass bottles filled with sand and water, or in one unusual case a potted plant.
Enokura also created numerous works consisting of fabric in single or double layers hung diagonally on the wall and folding out onto the floor.
