Whatever was possible was decorated with ceramic fragments: houses, benches, furniture, etc. Very nicely done but unfortunately a bit unkempt and not signposted. You have to find access through backyards.

The Maison Picassiette is a stunning example of Art Brut. Between decorator and architect, the self-taught artist Raymond Isidore, mockingly called Picassiette, "plate stealer", made every corner of his house a support for his art: walls, ceilings, patios, gardens, etc. This gigantic image, a product of the imagination of Life's work, born Picassiette, includes about 15 tons of different materials that make up the artist's palette: pieces of broken crockery, glass, faience and, of course, plates. A surprising work of art by an original artist
