Each month, CreativeMornings has a different theme for the talks given at local chapter events around the world. It is our tradition to work with an artist in our community to create an illustration for each monthly theme.

Our CreativeMornings/Basel chapter chose November’s exploration of RHYTHM and Patrizia Stalder created the accompanying illustration.

We’re excited to share some of our favorite artworks created by Patrizia and get to know her a bit!
