This vibrant ceramic tile by Henri Plisson is a striking example of mid-century modern abstraction in ceramic art. The composition bursts with bold, dynamic colors including fiery reds, lush greens, turquoise, and deep blues, interspersed with soft whites and blacks. The enamel glaze creates a luminous surface with a rich, glass-like finish that accentuates the textured and layered application of color.
Plisson’s work here feels organic and energetic, suggesting microscopic or cosmic imagery, perhaps flowers, minerals, or even cellular structures. Each color seems to float and react with the others, creating an impression of movement and fluidity. The tile is mounted on a neutral fabric backing and framed in a simple gilded wood frame.
Signed “Plisson” on the lower left, this piece reflects the artist’s deep engagement with the tactile and chromatic possibilities of enamel work, marrying painterly expression with the discipline of ceramic craftsmanship.
