The geometer of boxes
- • Gottfried creates geometrical forms
- • His porcelain boxes are distinctive
- • He creates the models from alabaster plaster
Gottfried Palatin’s first passion was drawing, the discovery and exploration of geometry and perspectives with a pen and a piece of paper. It wasn’t until art lessons in grammar school when he got a lump of clay in his hands and suddenly realized that he was much more interested in being able to shape objects in three dimensions with his own hands. This eureka moment led to studies at the Stoob School of Ceramics, followed by extensive study visits to Asia. In 1984, Gottfried joined the Viennese porcelain art studio of Prof. Gundi Dietz, where he could fully immerse himself in the world of porcelain and started to develop his own design language. After working for numerous renowned manufacturers, in 2014 he decided to solely focus on his unique collection of porcelain boxes.
