Tbt a world in black and white – cups and bowls and plates. Different sizes, different colors, different shapes – all porcelain and handthrown. Next week, I am back to normal, I decided that my holidays are over and so I have to start with my very last order – I won’t execute any more orders after that because I need my freedom. Opening hours for my Zurich based studio and showroom are Wed-Fri 12-6 and Sat 12-2. #artwork #white #ceramics #simplicity #modern #minimalism #artist #tea #porcelain #craft #tableware #switzerland #zurich #functionalpottery #pottery #maker #fineart #art #artoftheday #light #photo #bowl #elegant #handmade #zen #japan #korea #soul #helgaritschceramics

Ramen bowls for a restaurant – the brighter ones show the bowls after the first firing and before glazing, the black ones are finished: Some impressions of the fifty bowls, handthrown from stoneware and coated with a matte black glaze, 2018. Sometimes I give my time to work like this, it then feels a bit as in my beginnings, twentyfive years ago – so I remember my potter roots. #ceramics #ceramic #pottery #black #handmade #craft #elegant #zen #dark #tableware #roots #zurich #switzerland #fineart #series #simple #minimalism #japan #lemon #restaurant #food #plate #bowl #cup #ramen #soup

Another trip to the past and to another of my absolutely loved chicken: This one, called ‚the queen of the night’, now lives in Rome in a beautiful garden. As I told yesterday, in 2002, I made a series of seven of these sculptures, all handmade and fired in an open fire – every chick has a different character. This one I made with a black clay. The pieces are quite big with a hight of around 50 cm and tricky to make: The body often cracked. Only a few of my work survived: For example this one. #sculpture #ceramics #ceramic #contemporaryart #black #handmade #craft #makersgonnamake #zen #dark #handbuilt #pottery #zurich #switzerland #favourite #art #simple #artist #japan #geneva #exhibition #fineart #animal #visualart #clay #chick

Trip to the past and to my absolutely loved chicken: This lady now lives in Geneva at a collectors home. In 2002, I made a series of seven of these sculptures, all handmade and fired in an open fire – every chick has a completely different character. The dark smoke traces on their body came from the open firing. They are big, h 50 cm and very hard to make: A big body has to be fired like in an african ipen field fire and the body often cracked. Only a few of my work survived: I am still in love with them – one is mine. #ceramics #ceramic #porcelain #black #handmade #craft #elegant #zen #dark #handbuilt #pottery #zurich #switzerland #favourite #series #simple #minimalism #japan #geneva #exhibition #fineart #animal #smoke #clay #sculpture #chick

May I introduce? My best work so far: Edition masterpiece, 2015. A tea bowl, handthrown in white porcelain. I was absolutely in love with it. Unfortumately, two years ago, this bowl was sold when I was not in my studio: It was a mistake because I never wanted to sold it. I am still sad when I think about. At least I have this picture: I normally have no problems to let go my work but this bowl was so special for me, I worked for hours on all the lines and I went to my limits and also to the limit of the material – some parts were so thin and they were not broken during the firing. It was like a miracle for me….. #artwork #white #ceramics #simplicity #modern #minimalism #artist #masterpiece #porcelain #craft #luxury #switzerland #zurich #cotton #pottery #maker #fineart #exhibition #art #artoftheday #light #photo #bowl #elegant #handmade #zen #japan #korea #perfection #helgaritschceramics

It is over! Last Saturday evening, I finished a last commission of my tableware edition ‚black beauties’ from this year: Maybe you remember that I had to make all the pieces a second time? Tonight I started the first kiln and on Thursday I will start a second one – then all cups, bowls and plates for the party of seven will be finally ready…..I am behind with my work because of the accident during the drying process and I lost at least two weeks of work. Tomorrow, I will start with the next pieces for a very nice client and a very patience, too: I will make a dozen of quite big bowls also in black porcelain and then I have to complete again some bowls from stoneware. I would like to finish all this year: In January and February I need all my time and energy to prepare my solo exhibition in Tokyo that opens on March 16, 2019 – I will be there maybe some of you, too? That would be brilliant! #ceramics #ceramic #porcelain #black #handmade #craft #elegant #zen #dark #tableware #pottery #zurich #switzerland #fineart #series #simple #minimalism #japan #berlin #restaurant #food #plate #bowl #cup #coffee #tea

After my first coffees of the day: Good Morning from Zurich! In my gallery windows there are eight black bowls from the edition ‚Potterpieces’, that I made in November 2018, okey, four weeks ago. I am quite proud that I can present them because I have still a lot of orders and not a lot of time to do what I want. Next year this will change….All the bowls are hand thrown and made from stoneware and coated with a magical black glaze. Two sizes available. Happy Tuesday! #ceramics #ceramic #exhibition #black #handmade #art #artist #craft #elegant #zen #dark #bowl #pottery #zurich #switzerland #fineart #simple #minimalism #japan #tokyo #gallery #quiet #magic #poetry #korea #empty
