Morning light in the studio house – it seemed a bit like an autumn morning. My installation ‚it is over’ – placed on the windwsill of the corridor on the first floor. 2019. AVAILABLE. These days, I work in my studio at Soazza/GR. It is open by appointment. My Zurich based studio reopens on Friday, September 4: 12-6 as usual. #ceramics #ceramicart #ceramic #objects #window #light #pictureoftheday #bowl #fineart #elegant #delicate #zenart #craft #excellence #exquisite #masterpiece #handmade #contemporaryceramics #contemporaryceramic #studiolife #studio #zenartist #helgaritschceramics #soazza #switzerland #grisons #zurich #installationart Likes: [igp-likes]... 26 August, 2020
Hi to everybody from the mountains – I still work in my studio in Soazza/GR Switzerland for the next ten days. I decided to extend my time here because I work slowly and need more time to come to an end. On the post you can discover the southern room on the ground floor with the linen collection made by my mother during her cancer time – and some of my green bowls on the very old oven. This is the room where I sit to read and dream, it is a very charming one with the wooden walls and floor. I felt in love with the first sight, five years ago. I am now here and work for the first time for a longer period and I wanted to find out how to go on in the future. Still wondering……My studio where I work until the end of August is a work in progress – and looks different every day. Also the shown works change, depending on what I make new and what is sold. I came here without a plan to work with the greatest possible freedom. I am curious to see what will become of it. My studio in Soazza/GR Switzerland is open by appointment. And hey: I will be back in Zurich and reopen my studio and gallery there on Friday September 4, 12-6 as usual. And: The new works that I made here are now presented for purchase in my online shop – link im bio. Have a nice weekend everybody! #ceramics #ceramicart #openart #atelier #studiohouse #ceramicwork #contemporaryart #contemporaryceramics #contemporarycraft #tea #artlovers #soazza #helgaritschceramics #artist #artistlife #minimalism #workinprogress #exhibition #gallery #showroom #handmade #workshop #grisons #black #vessel #objectart #fineart #installationart #installationart Likes: [igp-likes]... 22 August, 2020
Time seems to fly – it’s already been over two weeks since I invited for tea in the teahouse. What a wonderful weekend it was! Thanks to all who visited us – and a special thank to Natasha who knew how to create a unique moment.

The northern room on the first floor with Romeo controlling street life through the window: My studio in house in Soazza where I work until the end of August is a work in progress – and looks different every day. Also the shown works change, depending on what I make new and what is sold. On Wednesday, I fired the first black porcelain works, they are now presented in the room on the picture. I came here without a plan to work with the greatest possible freedom. I am curious to see what will become of it. My studio in Soazza/GR Switzerland is open on Friday 12-6 and by appointment. I will be back in Zurich and reopen my studio and gallery there on Friday Aug 28. 12-6 as usual.

A view into the improvised teahouse: My mountain studio @helga_ritsch_moutainstudio is a work in progress – and looks a little different every day. Also the shown works change, depending on what I make new and what is sold. I repeat myself in memory: I came here without a plan to work with the greatest possible freedom. I am curious to see what will become of it. My studio is open on Friday 12-6 and by appointment. Don‘t forget the long weekend today Friday, July 31 and tomorrow, August 1 with a special tea house event, hold by Natasha: More infos and booking via link in bio!

I am happy to give you a glimpse into my summer studio where I will be working in July and August. I will be there from July 18 to August 15 and you can visit me on Fridays 12-6 and any time by appointment. Please note that during this period my Zurich based studio is open only by appointment. I will work in the same way as in Zurich, but I plan some small events in addition like a ‚tea salon‘ with my friend @natasha.vaidya on a Saturday in July or August. My summer studio is a very old house from the 16th century with its own character and it is only basically renovated. I will present my own work – also as a work in progress because I am working there at the wheel and every week the setting will change – and my small private art collection with some wonderful iron works from my friend @motomu_oyama and small paintings f.e. from @gabriele_herzog or a big cartoon series from P.R. and others. I am still planning my summer weeks in the studio. Of course I will offer tea and coffee in my own cups and you can visit my four rooms full of books, ceramics, painting, photos. I will be there with a lot of time especially on Fridays. My summer studio is in Soazza, a small and beautiful village in Switzerland, near Bellinzona and you could enjoy a nice day there. Hope to see many of you! More pictures of the summer studio you will find at my second account @we_are_ritsch . #ceramics #studio #studiolife #workshop #ceramicart #studioceramics #atelier #oldhouse #soazza #painting #collection #privatecollection #collector #contemporaryart #tea #teasalon #mountains #stonehouse #woodhouse #craft #helgaritschceramics #summerstudio #maker #architect #interiors #grisons Likes: [igp-likes]... 07 Juni, 2020

Love this place where I live and work when I am not in Zurich and I already wrote about before: It is a beautiful small village in the South of Switzerland, and there is the old house I am renovating. Actually it is impossible to work there at the moment because – as you can see on the photo – winter arrived, so it is cold in the house because there is no heating. I am working on it until the next winter…..But for photoshootings it is a very good place also in winter – some of the photos I posted recently have been taken there. It is a very quiet and romantic space surrounded by wonderful landscape and very nice people live in the village. There they do not speak German but Italian – and it brings back some memories from my childhood because my father was born in Italy. He died when I was in my twenties and he unfortunately never saw my pottery development. Well, when you travel through Switzerland you maybe stop by – the village is called Soazza and it is near Bellinzona. Does anyone of you know it? #love #landscape #nature #holiday #photo #snow #night #landschaft #dorf #village #winter #beautiful #art #romantik #schnee #töpferei #keramik #mesocco #misox #mesolcina #bellinzona #zurich #switzerland #architecture #style #winterland #handwerk #grisons #graubünden #craft Likes: [igp-likes]... 15 Januar, 2017
