About
Hitomi Hosono is one of the UK’s leading ceramic artists and is greatly admired for her painstakingly fine works in porcelain. She has an exceptional talent for creating works of art so delicate that the porcelain leaves and flowers which decorate her vessels, almost appear to ‘dance’.
Following a degree in ornamental pottery at Kanazawa College of Art in Japan, Hitomi spent a year studying in Denmark before gaining an MA in ceramics at the Royal College of Art in London. She has since settled in London and captured the imagination and acclaim of both private collectors and museums. Her pieces are held in the permanent collections of internationally renowned institutions, including the British Museum, London; Victoria and Albert Museum, London; Musée Guimet, Paris, France; LACMA, Los Angeles, USA. She was also the first artist-in-residence at Wedgwood, where she designed a collection of jasper pieces launched in 2018.
