About Hillit Wahlberg

Hillit Wahlberg is originally from Tel Aviv, Israel, and now resides in Denver, Colorado. Hillit’s journey with clay began at a young age, culminating in her exploration of the throwing wheel in 2019. While pursuing careers in media and later in tech, her passion for ceramics remained a constant creative refuge until the summer of 2021, when she decided to transition into clay full-time.

Her ceramics have been exhibited in galleries and art spaces across Colorado, including the 41st Annual All Colorado Art Show at the Curtis Center for the Arts, delecTABLE at the Art Students League of Denver, MUGSHOT at the Arvada Center, PRESENT Company at SeeSaw Art Gallery, and Seed at BRDG Project. Her work has also been presented online through Artsy in collaboration with SeeSaw Art Gallery.

Artist Statement

My work explores the intersection of tradition and innovation, blending ancient techniques and earthy aesthetics with contemporary geometric forms. Through this fusion, I seek to create harmony between past and present. At the core of my practice is a deep engagement with dualities, where contrasting elements and concepts coexist within each piece, evoking complexity and balance.
