Goto Hideki (b. 1973) is a ceramic artist based in Tajimi City. After graduating from Tajimi Technical High School, where he studied ceramics, he participated in public exhibitions, solo exhibitions, and group exhibitions. His works meditates upon the origin of pottery: the interplay between the earth and clay. He values his encounter with various materials from the earth when mining for his own clay, and strives to represent the natural appearance of mineral deposits in soil on his surfaces.
This series, “Watatsumi 海神”, is titled after a legendary deity of the sea. The sea god is conventionally represented in the form of a dragon: a motif associated with water in Japanese mythology. Perhaps invoking the sea god is a bridge between humankind and nature, mediating the relationship between the two.
