Hiroyuki Tomita creates a wide range of work, from everyday functional wares to large sculptural works. He also makes large-scale decorative tiles for walls of hotels and inns. Traditional ceramic art plays an important role in his making but he also values new perspectives and creativity a lot. This can be seen in his tablewares. They are bold in colour and made to not only serve the food but also decorate the dining tables.
