Hi-Dutch: 'Portrait 01'

Posted by 'InOrderOf' on

Hi-Dutch, Flexx Lex and Gallery Target unite for a unique ceramic sculpture Edition

Epitomising the art of upcycling, Hi-Dutch’s surfboard-repairing skills, and environmental conscience collide in a fusion of recycled materials and specialist craftsmanship. Driftwood, yarn, ink and resin, while not the most obvious combination of materials, become in the hand of Hi-Dutch, the perfect melting pot of mediums.

Hi-Dutch

Takahiro Hida

B. 1972

Japanese




Hi-Dutch manages to straddle the line between wall-hanging works and three-dimensional forms. Regardless of scale and colour palette, his attention to detail always shines through the varnish–distinctive graining and bold surf deck-inspired line formations; his signature style.

Opting for a more open exhibition experience, Hi-Dutch continues to show his work at galleriesand specialist stores around the world, from San Francisco to San Jose. His critically acclaimeddebut solo show at Gallery Target ‘Yesterday. Today. Tomorrow’ garnering global recognition anda growing collector community.

In his first numbered Edition (limited to 100 pieces), Hi-Dutch brings his unique brand of everyday life to ceramic sculpture, teaming up with Flexx Lex and Gallery Target for 'Portrait 01'. With both a hook hole and a flat base, the sculpture can be displayed as a bust or flat against the wall – the choice is yours!
