川井 雄仁

Kazuhito Kawai (b. 1984, Ibaraki, Japan) graduated with a BA Fine Art at Chelsea College of Arts (UAL) in 2007. After studying contemporary art in London, he encountered his new medium which was ceramics and experienced the liberation of his creativity allowing him to find a breakthrough. Kawai then graduated at Kasama College of Ceramic Art (Ibaraki) in 2018 and is currently working in Ibaraki. His ceramic works, characterized by dynamic colors and shapes, show various expressions such as irregularity, ugliness, grotesqueness, and fragility, and express his inner self drawn out by the materials in a multilayered manner. The piled-up lumps of clay reflect the time axis of a dialogue between the clay and himself. He has been exhibiting in Japan and overseas such as Hong Kong, Brussels, Los Angeles and more.
