In the best tradition of minimalist design, Battaglene's pared down decoration is rich with layers of reference and meaning. From the venerable tradition of blue and white to evocations of industrial processes and teeming micro-organisms. These references flicker in and out of the mind in a manner that paralleles the formal figure/ground relationships of the patterns.
The patterning and layering of Battaglene's work creates an electric potential that dwells quietly within cool and minimal forms. Disciplined and pared down - yet aesthetically and conceptually rich - Peter Battaglene's work is both edgily contemporary and timeless in its cool elegance"
Peter Hughes - Curator of Decorative Arts, Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery. Media release for solo exhibition "Almost Blue" Bett Gallery - Hobart, Tasmania, October 2003.
Peter Battaglene established the Watermark Pottery in Hobart in 1991. Twelve years on, he is focused on producing fine, handcrafted work in porcelain.
