Artist Hiromoto Tobimatsu - The warm space and vessels woven by Tobimatsu Toki

Born in Saga Prefecture in 1980, currently residing in Tokyo. Presents works mainly focusing on slip-cast porcelain under the brand name "Tobimatsu Toki". Graduated from Tama Art University, Department of Crafts, Ceramics Program. Utilizing his experience in three-dimensional modeling with molds during his studies, he began creating "vessels" using the slip-casting technique. After working as an assistant for ceramic artists Takehiko Higuchi and Machiko Ogawa, he became independent.

Hiromoto Tobimatsu's works are characterized by their ability to create a warm atmosphere through the interplay of light and shadow. The designs, which leverage the translucency of porcelain, evoke a "retro modern" feel that is both nostalgic and fresh. His diverse works, such as lampshades, "vessels," and vases, incorporate delicate beauty within their simplicity, gently illuminating everyday living spaces. They are also used in the lighting fixtures at the nokaze store, exuding a presence that enhances the entire space.

Simple and modern vessels that maximize the translucency of Tobimatsu Toki's porcelain

Hiromoto Tobimatsu's works are characterized by techniques that maximize the translucency of porcelain. In the slip-casting method he uses, liquid porcelain clay is poured into a plaster mold to achieve uniform, smooth shapes and beautiful translucency. To create a delicate texture that is more translucent than regular porcelain, he uses specially adjusted porcelain clay.

His lampshades, in particular, feature designs where the soft light emitted in the dark gently envelops the entire space, giving them a nostalgic yet modern impression. Furthermore, his plates and bowls combine durability suitable for everyday use with simple beauty, while his vases are designed to bring natural harmony to plants and spaces.

Comfortable time woven by light and shadow

Hiromoto Tobimatsu's works reveal a strong commitment to the expression of light. He says, "Light is not just physical brightness; it brings peace to people's hearts." As his words suggest, his works create warmth and rhythm in a space through light.

In his lampshades, the angle of the light leakage and its softness are meticulously calculated, making them artistic items that go beyond mere lighting fixtures. Furthermore, the subtle unevenness and delicate shades on the porcelain surface create a contrast between light and shadow, expressing a beauty as if capturing a scene woven by nature.

Among these are numerous "vessels" created using his unique techniques. They possess a delicate quality within their simple design, enriching everyday life. Moreover, these "vessels" are light and exceptionally easy to use. Once you use them, you'll find them indispensable.

Hiromoto Tobimatsu's works illuminate daily life and create new value. Experience their charm at the nokaze store and incorporate them into your own space.
