Pierre Bounaud is a San Diego-based ceramic artist, working from his home studio overlooking the scenic Talmadge neighborhood canyons. Born and raised in France, in the Provence region, Pierre studied Chemistry before clay took over his life and became his muse. Combining his love of experimentation and architecture, Pierre creates original, colorful, and textural functional wares, as well as sculptural vessels and geometric abstract structures reminiscent of the Brutalist architecture style. Pierre’s unique artwork has been featured in galleries throughout the United States, including the American Museum of Ceramic Arts, the Borrego Art Institute, the Kellogg University Art Gallery, and the City of Brea Art Gallery.
