1980s EA/FR/0115

The technique of “Picassiette” is a form of French folk art that is characterized by the use of broken plates or other ceramics to create intricate and colorful mosaic designs. The name “Picassiette” is derived from a combination of “Picasso,” the renowned Spanish artist known for his abstract art, and “assiette,” the French word for “plate.” The technique involves carefully breaking and arranging pieces of ceramics into a desired pattern or design, which is then secured onto a surface using a strong adhesive. Resulting in pieces that showcase (the beauty of) recycled materials.
