Description
Pierre BAYLE (1945–2004). Tree. Square bas-relief, decorated with a trunk and applied shards of engobed terracotta, known as sigillata. Unsigned. H_35 cm W_35 cm Provenance: a private collection in Occitania, belonging to a friend of Pierre Bayle. Note: A ceramist from the Languedoc region, trained in Castelnaudary, Pierre Bayle combined traditional craftsmanship with avant-garde experimentation, establishing ceramics as an art form in its own right, straddling the line between utilitarian and decorative objects. He creates works in sigillata clay, first engobed and then smoked, with surfaces worked to achieve a particular texture and crackling effect, which lend depth and uniqueness to his pieces.
