2013, from the archive. View on a part of my exhibition presentation in Austria. I showed one of a kind bowls and vases in black and my first tableware collection ‚PUR’ from 2004.

Zurich, July 2020. A quite big hand thrown bowl in my studio window. I have still a lot to organize before I will leave for my summerstudio @we_are_ritsch . I have to hurry because I am only in town for three more days. Please note: This Friday, July 17, my studio and showroom is still open from 12-6. I will then leave for my summerstudio to Soazza/GR, Switzerland. My studio there will be open on Friday, 12-6 and by appointment. My main studio in Zurich will be closed until I am back at the end of August. I deeply love the summertime – and I wish you all a great one! #ceramics #ceramic #tea #bowl #stoneware #handmade #craft #minimalism #blue #black #white #soazza #zurich #zen #fineart #lifestyle #makersgonnamake #shadow #simple #elegant #tableware #helgaritschceramics #contemporaryceramics #gallery #exhibition #excellence #object #summer

I will then leave for my summerstudio at Soazz/GR, Switzerland. The studio there will be also open on Friday, 12-6 and by appointment.

A look at my collection of my own work. I try to keep some works that are somehow important to me. Here some porcelain works, at home on the shelf. 1/2019, 2/2018-19, 3//2012, 4/2005. I do not always manage to keep the pieces: Sometimes I take some of them back to the showroom because I often have little to sell – currently available works in the online gallery via link in bio. But it’s good as it is. #ceramics #ceramic #porcelain #exhibition #blue #handmade #art #artist #craft #elegant #zen #dark #bowl #pottery #zurich #switzerland #fineart #simple #minimalism #japan #contemporaryceramics #gallery #privatecollection #shelves #books #korea #helgaritschceramics @hervelancelin

Again: Blue hour in Zurich, my blue hour…..I am going into these days with melancholy: A strange feeling that I often have when something has come to an end and something new should start. I have been very busy in recent months and urgently need time to finish old things and also to develop new things. I call this state my ‚blue hour‘. It is a transition with an open end. Something unpleasant but essential for my creative work.

Time is running and me, too! In a few days, I will fly to Tokyo for my solo exhibition: I present a small selection of my white porcelain work @het_labo_atrium. During my days in Japan, my open studio evenings on every Thursday from 5-8 will be managed by Samira-Carla – she will be happy to welcome you in Zurich. I am grateful that she finds time to be at the studio on these Thursday evenings. She will show you the work and answer to your questions: As a master student in Art History she is familiar with my work, intention and ideas. I am sure that my space is in good hands! More about the exhibition in Japan, my studios in Zurich and Soazza, cooperations and private works you will find on my website www.helga-ritsch.com .

In January, I started with a review on my work, with some ups and downs in my studio and private life and at the end all is going on as on that picture: Quiet moment in my Zurich based workshop, Saturday night feeling, pensive. I started on IG three years ago because of a radical change in my business life. I had no idea how many people will follow my pictures and ideas here on this open platform. There were a lot of wonderful moments here during the last three years – and some difficult ones with people who knows no respect, no limits, no honesty. Interesting to realise. #ceramics #tea #exhibition #handmade #pottery #blue #minimalism #empty #monday #zurich #contemporaryart #switzerland #zen #artist #unique #clay #magic #poetry #tokyo #craft #japan #korea #helgaritschceramics

‚Work in progress‘ – the title of my current winter exhibition that will run until December 22nd. As you know, I am still working on some comissions but I am also working on new things as creating new glazes. Here a result of a new glaze that I tried out on two hand thrown bowls from dark red stoneware. My new glaze has a color between green and blue and brownblack with a matte finish: I am very happy with this surface and I will go on also with this one. Early in the year I made another one with a semi-matte blackblue finish that looks very elegant and magic at the same time. When I create new glazes I am always looking for a magical effect and not for a glaze with an uniform finish that could also be made – or maybe better – of an industrial color system. I am also looking for perfect closed surfaces, no needles mistakes on the pieces or something like that. Quite tricky to create your own glazes! #ceramics #bowl #glaze #clay #pottery #green #blue #black #makersgonnamake #helgaritschceramics #empty #contemporaryart #exhibition #new #workinprogress #zurich #switzerland #tokyo #experiment #magic #zen #minimalism #quiet

Poetry in clay, two. Monday morning scene. I had some weeks behind me with a lot of ups and downs and it was hard to finish some work in time for my current winter exhibition: So I am happy that I could at least present some new bowls and new tea sets, here one of them from blue porcelain with an orange thread. I love this strong color combinatio, no idea why. My new studio is wonderful warm but this was an unexpected problem for some porcelain pieces and I lost a whole commission ‚black beauties’ for seven people with more than 50 plates and bowls. I started again, yes: Frustrated. I am still working on it and I hope that this time it will work. #ceramics #tea #exhibition #handmade #pottery #blue #minimalism #empty #monday #zurich #contemporaryart #switzerland #zen #artist #unique #clay #magic #poetry #tokyo #craft #japan #korea #helgaritschceramics

Studio scene wirh the edition ‚Masterpieces’, some magical pieces in blue porcelain. Hand thrown. No glaze, fine sanded. I do not have a blue period – but sometimes I love this powerful color. I am working with blue from time to time. Last time I did a lot of blue vases, that was 2006. Twelve years later I am back – this time with a poetry in porcelain. #ceramics #ceramic #porcelain #exhibition #blue #handmade #art #artist #craft #elegant #zen #dark #bowl #pottery #zurich #switzerland #fineart #simple #minimalism #japan #tokyo #gallery #quiet #magic #poetry #korea #empty

And here they are – at least a part of them: After many hours of work, I could sand all the bottoms and put them@all together. Tableware pieces for a party of sixteen: My stoneware collection ‚PUR’, launched in 2006. Hand thrown stoneware, coated with four different craquele celadon glazes. On this photo: Plates – diameter of 30 cm- and quite big cups – diameter of 12 cm, special wish – for coffee or tea. Soon, all pieces will left to their new home. I hope the clients will love them – you never know, I am always nervous. #ceramics #ceramic #clay #earth #handmade #craft #elegant #zen #dark #tableware #pottery #zurich #switzerland #fineart #series #simple #minimalism #japan #blue #restaurant #food #plate #bowl #cup #coffee #tea #green #brown

Back to the roots, 2: In 2006 I made one of my first tableware collection, called ‚PUR’. These days I am working again on that collection for a reorder of a client who is using the dishes since 2007. He needs new plates and bowls for a party of sixteen. The plates will have a diamerer of 30cm, they are quite big and I need a lot of energy to make them…..I am also working on new stoneware tea bowls, finally! It is a pleasure to work with stoneware clay – so different from porcelain! All the pieces on the pic are hand thrown in 2006 with stoneware clay and I coated them with different celadon craquele glazes – I created some colors, kind of blue, green, brown and yellow. I am still using a lot of plates and cups from these days and my first collection – most of the pieces are twelve years old: I am a bit proud – great quality! #ceramics #tableware #handmade #home #collection #pottery #zurich #exclusive #eat #switzerland #pottery #craft #family #japan #series #zen #longtimeago #past #quality #artwork #interiordesign #blue #green #black #tea #coffee #dishes #paradise

And again some blue ones: Edition ‚Masterpieces’, June 2018. Bowls. Blue porcelain. Hand thrown. No glaze, fine sanded. A tea bowl and a medium sized bowl. I still not have a blue period – but sometimes I love blue. In 2006 I have thrown a lot of blue vases. And last year I started with these blue bowls, all in porcelain. I made these two bowls some weeks ago.

Edition ‚Masterpieces’, July 2018. Bowl. Blue porcelain. Hand thrown. No glaze, fine sanded. H 12cm, d 20cm.

I did a series of blue glazed vases in 2006 and last year I started with these blue bowls, all in blue porcelain. This bowl I also made three weeks ago. Hope that you like it, too: It is also a delicate one with a special shape and a rim in the foot. #ceramics #ceramic #porcelain #exhibition #blue #handmade #art #artist #craft #elegant #zen #dark #bowl #pottery #zurich #switzerland #fineart #simple #minimalism #japan #tokyo #gallery #quiet #magic #poetry #korea #empty

Edition ‚Masterpieces’, July 2018. Bowl. Blue porcelain. Hand thrown. No glaze, fine sanded. H 11cm, d 19cm. I do not have a blue period – but sometimes I love blue. I am working with blue – pure porcelain or stoneware glazed with my blue glaze – from time to time. Last time I did a lot of blue vases, that was 2006. Last year I started with these blue bowls, all in blue porcelain. This bowl I made three weeks ago. Hope that you like it: It is a very delicate one with a special fine shape. #ceramics #ceramic #porcelain #exhibition #blue #handmade #art #artist #craft #elegant #zen #dark #bowl #pottery #zurich #switzerland #fineart #simple #minimalism #japan #tokyo #gallery #quiet #magic #poetry #korea #empty

Beautiful summer tea bowls, hand thrown, white porcelain. My favourite pieces, too. I have always some teabowls in porcelain and in stoneware in my showroom: Pass by on Wednesday to Friday 12-6 and on Saturday 11-2. I am still in Zurich next week and then my studio will be closed until August 15th. #tea #ceramics #ceramic #porcelain #artist #makersgonnamake #handmade #craft #elegant #zen #collector #tableware #pottery #zurich #switzerland #fineart #white #simple #minimalism #japan #blue #cup #tealover #korea #helgaritschceramics #collection

Still waiting: I made this tea bowl for one of my first collectors, he started collecting my works many years ago. He wrote me yesterday that he is still in Chicago and sent me some wonderful picturs from the Art Institute: I have so many interesting and lovely ‚customers‘ – this means the world for me, thank you! Tea bowl, hand thrown, blue porcelain. Special edition. #tea #ceramics #ceramic #porcelain #artist #makersgonnamake #handmade #craft #elegant #zen #collector #tableware #pottery #zurich #switzerland #fineart #series #simple #minimalism #japan #blue #cup #tealover #chicago #helgaritschceramics #collection

Back to stoneware: I started with new coffee cups in two sizes – the ones on the photo are hand thrown and coated with a matte light green glaze. This time I will make light blue ones and lavender ones – fourty pieces for Sai’s restaurant and some more for my shop in Zurich. Love making them! #ceramics #ceramic #coffee #coffeecup #flatwhite #green #blue #lavender #pottery #restaurant #simple #minimalism #lifestyle #handmade #craft #makersgonnamake #artist #zurich #switzerland #colors #china
