Walking into the green. Calm after some busy months. During August, I work in my studio st Soazza/GR. Visits on Friday 12-6 and by appointment. I will reopen my Zurich based studio on Friday, August 28: 12-6 as usual. Enjoy the summer days! #ceramics #ceramicart #ceramic #nature #green #love #style #pictureoftheday #me #elegant #delicate #zenart #craft #excellence # #happy #beautiful #contemporaryceramics #walk #studiolife #studio #zenartist #helgaritschceramics #soazza #switzerland #japan #zurich #zen Likes: [igp-likes]... 05 August, 2020
Sitting on a stone table at the South side of Switzerland where I also life and work. To have two different living and working places seems for me a privilege. It is calmer and wider in the mountains and sometimes I really like that. But at the end, my heart is beating for a city life and I would love to live in a big city. Still dreaming. #helgaritschceramics #me #portrait #scene #studio #blackandwhite #mountains #sitting #table #thinking #village #city #ceramics #ceramic #dreaming #thinkbig #artist #photography #photo #pictureoftheday Likes: [igp-likes]... 19 September, 2019
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 .

Me, dirty and tired in my studio house on the South of Switzerland. I was cleaning the studio for hours and it was probably not the best time to take a picture….But anyway: My short CV and an ‚artist statement‘ to answer to your questions about my background: The main focus of my work in porcelain and stoneware is the visual search for simplicity, serenity and beauty.
