Beatriz Garrigo

HISTORY

A road winds its way up into the Albères Mountains; the vegetation changes, and the air turns cool.

Horses, the bells of a herd of goats in the distance…

A house like a work of art, in which every ceramic tile—from floor to ceiling—has been shaped, painted, and glazed by the lady of the house.

Beatriz works in a studio with floor-to-ceiling windows that open wide onto an idyllic natural landscape.

She studied painting at the Barcelona School of Fine Arts, in her hometown. Then, just across the Catalan border, she learned to work with the famous red clay of La Bisbal.

Each of his pieces is, in order, thrown, dried, fired, painted, fired, glazed, and fired one last time.

Mimosa, pomegranate, blue, sunshine yellow, fish, cement gray, flower, peony red, charcoal black; her colorful works are designed for everyday use and sold in museums and art galleries.

For her, art and life are one and the same, filled with joyful serenity, simplicity, and beauty.
