Tomoyuki Hoshino (b. 1976) left his career to study ceramics under renowned ceramicist Ikai Yuichi, but though he became an artist in 2005, Hoshino carries his passion for people forward in his idea that the pink motif is a universal color inherent to humans. The color is not restricted by geography, sex, religion, or language. In 2013 he became a full member of the Japan Crafts Association, and his ceramics have since been exhibited extensively in Japan and Europe in both galleries and museums. In recognition of Hoshino’s unique approach, the artist has won many awards at Japan’s annual national and international exhibitions.
