Sobre el Artista

Danica Wichtermann is an emerging contemporary ceramic artist and also a sculpture, art and ceramic teacher, who lives and works in Perth WA. She received her Diploma of Education (Secondary, 2009) and Bachelor of Arts (2008) at Curtin University WA, and has also completed a Cert IV in Visual Arts at Fremantle Tafe WA (2005). Danica’s passion is working on the potter’s wheel and exploring the limits of clay. She creates handmade vessels, sculptural works and functional ware, which all explore the notion of ‘rediscovering ceramics.’ Her work is inspired by the Western Australian bush, flora, sea and landscapes; specifically their unseen or hidden beauty. Each piece goes on its own journey, reflecting colour, form and feeling. They are created to be explored, to draw you into their own internal worlds, to be discovered and unveiled. Danica has exhibited in many group exhibitions around WA, has won awards for her work and is currently represented by the Barracuda Studio Gallery in Fremantle; Bunbury Regional Art Galleries in Bunbury; Happs Pottery in Dunsborough and the Zig Zag Cultural Centre Gift Shop in Kalamunda. Danica is currently working towards a solo exhibition and expanding her ceramic business nationally as well as internationally.
