Born in Oslo in 1947, and graduated from the National Academy of Fine Art, Oslo, Norway in 1975, followed by the National Academy of Fine Art, Oslo, Norway in 1980, Beth Wyller is considered as one of the most important living ceramists from Norway. In the words of the artist “ I work with clay. A strong interest in my work is to pursue how small displacements and changes affect the artistic expression. My work moves between image, sculpture and usage. I work with expressions and stories that have anchoring in ceramic traditions. Earthenware as material carries out all-round associations from the history of ceramics, which become part of the artistic language.” Her handmade, unique ceramic pieces are part of important Norwegian museum collections such as The Museum of Decorative Arts and Design, Oslo; The National Museum of Decorative Arts and Design, Trondheim, and the West Norway Museum of Decorative Art, Bergen. Beth Wyller has received several awards and prizes, including the Special Prize, WOCEF, Korea (2003 and 2007); The City of Oslo Culture Award (2003) and the Arts and Crafts Award, Norway (1996) and her work is represented in all the major Norwegian museums.
