Me in Tokyo – for the new followers from the last month, thank you! My short CV and an ‚artist statement‘ to answer to your questions about my background – at least some of the questions, the easy ones about dates and education: The main focus of my work in porcelain and stoneware is the visual search for simplicity, serenity and beauty. Before I started my five years education as a ceramic artist, I built an academic background in Architecture, Art History and Philosophy and made then the bridge to craft. I am a quality worker not a quantity one: My work needs its time, sometimes a lot. CV: Born in Switzerland – but without a Swiss passport. I started my work as an independent ceramic artist in 1998 without a wheel. 2001-2006: Apprenticeship for ceramist with Master ceramist Mathies Schwarze, Germany. Wheel throwing. 1989-1995: Course of studies at the University of Zurich . Art History/German Philology/Philosophy (today M.A.) 1987-1989: Cours of studies at ETH Zurich .

Yesterday, I started with a new series of such tea bowls, cups, bowls and plates from stoneware and I will all coat with my celadon glazes. Some of them will probably look like this teabowl, that is wheelthrown also from stoneware and coated with a green celadon craquele glaze – one of my a classical work. You will find all information about my work on my website, www.helga-ritsch.ch.

Tomorrow, Thursday, open studio 5-8: I changed the opening hours for my Zurich based studio. I realized that I need more time for concentrate working and unfortunately it is no longer possible for me to open my studio doors every day without an appointment. As I already wrote, It was really lovely to welcome so many people but at the same time it was difficult to work with the concentration that I need for my pieces. So I am happy when you visit me in my studio by appointment or: Every Thursday from 5 to 8. And tomorrow it is Thursday! So please come and visit me and my studio in Zurich. On the post and in my studio window: Three breakfast sets with bowl and cup, hand thrown from black porcelain, with the black thread. Vase from black porcelain, with the thread. All pieces of the collection ‚blackbeauties‘, launched in 2017.

I really love them! There are some new simple black teabowls out of the kiln, all of the edition ‚potterpieces’, hand thrown, stoneware and coated with a dark glossy ironglaze – one of my a classical work and now available in my shop in Zurich. Some of them are already sold and will leave for their new homes within the next days. #tea #stoneware #ceramics #winter #black #teatime #zen #design #art #crafts #contemporaryart #making #simple #greentea #working #series #teabowl #stilllife #zurich #switzerland #drink #photooftheday #exhibition #homesweethome #japan #picoftheday #scenery #interior #architecture #classical
