Takayuki Sakiyama
A graduate of Osaka’s University of Arts, in 1987 Takayuki Sakiyama established the Hidaka-gama kiln and has regularly exhibited at museums, galleries, and art fairs around the world. Drawing inspiration from the sea surrounding the Izu Peninsula where he resides, his pieces can be found in New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art and Le Musée National de Céramique de Sèvres.
