A Place that inspired us.

Vidusmeži is a home, a brand and a space of creative expression that allows
to make high quality products - ceramics with character and
the added value provided by the natural resources of the Salaca Valley. Hand-built ceramic products   inspired by the tones and patterns of nature, with responsibility
created in an environment that inspires! In this environment artists Linda and Rinalds Zelti have been studying clay since 2016. The idea of ​​creating a pottery workshop arose with
desire to move to the countryside. Self-exploration and self-study are
made it possible to learn more about ceramic art and its endless technologies, alowing to create their own unique visual identity. Experimentation is a creative process
an integral part that paves the way for new combinations of shapes, textures and colors. Additional
to create functional ceramics, ceramist Linda Zelta creates research-based contemporary ceramic sculptures, light objects, installations made of clay, firing in various ways
in alternative wood-kilns, using pit-firing technology and electric kiln firings, searching for own visual language to show
interactions between nature and contemporary ceramics.
The knowledge base was supplemented by studying at Latvian Academy of Arts Ceramics department, exchange of experience with other artists and group wood-kiln firings with other ceramists, ceramic symposiums, participating in exhibitions, leading the ceramics workshop of Mazsalaca Cultural Centers Craftshouse and working with all kind of people organizing master classes in Vidusmeži workshop.
