​About the Artist

The Italian ceramic artist, Barbara Raimondo, was born and grew up in a small region in Italy, Liguria, a half moon of land set between the Mediterranean sea and the beautiful Appenino Ligure mountains. She spent her childhood between layers..., layers of soil, the terraces, where her grandpa used to cultivate olive trees and vineyards, and layers of history defined by her home town, founded in the 4th century BC.

​

In 2015, Barbara Raimondo moved to Asia; before in Singapore and then in Hong Kong where she lives and works.

​

Before starting a career as artist and launching her first ceramic collection in 2020, called Liguria Collection, Barbara Raimondo worked in the financial industry.

​

Her works are inspired by her roots, by the beauty left by the history, the art and the architecture of the places where she grew up and lived.

Layers of memories, layers of sentiments, layers of life, one on top of the other are infused in her pieces. 

"I have always had an urge to work with my hands, I guess because my grandpa was a farmer and I have seen him doing great things with his manual work. I see my hands as a powerful tool to shape the clay in raw forms and inspired by my roots and by the beauty left by the history of the places where I grew up and lived".
