Large Shino Shell Forms by Goto Hideki
I was at Hori Ichiro's studio a few years ago and there for the first time I saw the work of Goto Hideki(b.1963). Goto assists Hori with his anagama firings and also makes powerful works never before seen in the Mino world. The left shell form is W54 D38 H30 and weighs 14kg; the right one is W46.5 D38 H28 and weighs 12.5kg. Goto was born Miyazaki in northern Japan and graduated from the Tajimi Technical High School and he's exhibited in group and one-man exhibitions. Museum pieces.
