THE STORY OF
studio staltari
My name is Mauro. I am 34 years old and have been working as an architect in Zurich since August 2014.
During an interdisciplinary week in primary school aimed at expanding our manual skills, I came into contact with the craft of pottery for the first time. I molded a ball of clay, which was then glazed and fired. The whole process, from shaping the object to glazing and firing it, deeply impressed me, and I found it to be a magical moment. The memory of this special event led me to take a pottery course at a Zurich studio in 2019. I continued to visit a workshop on a weekly basis, where I learned to work with the wonderful material of clay and to master the art of glazing.
My works are characterized by proportion, symmetry, and aesthetics, which are inevitably strongly influenced by the glaze.
My vision is to create objects that can assert themselves independently of their functionality.
