Handbuilt Ceramics at Chiemsee: a workshop between tranquility, form, and material

On July 15, 2026, an art experience opens at Moierhof Gstadt at Chiemsee, uniquely connecting craftsmanship and aesthetic experience. The workshop moments & makers - Handbuilt Ceramics with Simone Loy introduces the building technique and transforms clay into a personal vessel, shaped with your own hands.

Thinking forms out of the material

Without a pottery wheel, but with concentration, touch, and a sense for surface, ceramics are created here as an immediate process. Simone Loy works with clay as a living substance: layers, pressure marks, slips, and colored accents shape the form and give each piece a calm, yet distinctive presence. The technique of handbuilt ceramics places the creation itself in the spotlight.

A place for deceleration and contemplation of the work

The Moierhof in Gstadt provides an atmospheric setting made of a historical courtyard ensemble, natural surroundings, and clear spatial effects. Between Chiemsee and pre-Alpine landscape, the workshop unfolds a quiet concentration that has become rare in today’s art and cultural scene. Here, haste does not matter, but the trace of the hand, the drying, firing, and possible glazing as part of a conscious design process.

Simone Loy: ceramic language of earth and tranquility

Simone Loy understands ceramics as a material that makes depth, balance, and harmony visible. Her works focus on reduction, sensuality, and a poetic closeness to the earth. This fits perfectly with a format that also addresses beginners aged 14 and older and requires no prior knowledge. All materials are included, the finished pieces will be processed in the workshop and later picked up or shipped.

Education, craftsmanship, and cultural experience

The workshop connects cultural education with practical learning. Those who shape clay experience not only a craft procedure but also an artistic attitude: patience, attention, and respect for the material. This is where the strength of this offer in Chiemgau lies - it conveys art not as distance but as immediate experience.

Conclusion: A course that makes images from hands

moments & makers - Handbuilt Ceramics with Simone Loy is an inspiring event for everyone who wants to experience art, craftsmanship, and regional culture in a concentrated workshop atmosphere. If you love Chiemgau and appreciate creative processes, you will find an event here with real added value. A visit is worthwhile - for your own form, your own tranquility, and a piece of ceramics with a personal story.
