“If only I were Picasso”, thinks the Goat. But he is not. And this is not the goat we all know, either. This one is part of Alentejo’s practical culture and holds the water that refreshes those in need. Master potter Xico Tarefa brought it to life on the wheel and made it his Picasso.

A goat with a sense of humour

Picasso Goat Jug

The Alentejo jug that gained a cubist face.

Story of the piece

Picasso Goat Jug

This goat is cubist

This piece of Alentejo pottery can hold water, serve as a vase or simply take a special place in your home. Its shape recalls the practical tradition of clay; the painted face gives it an unexpected expression, crossing popular imagination with cubist inspiration.

Xico Tarefa shapes the clay on the wheel, continuing a craft he learned as a teenager. Then the brush transforms the piece, drawing a geometric face full of personality that earns it the nickname Picasso.

Between the pottery tradition of Redondo and the freedom to reinvent shapes and faces, the Picasso Goat shows that craft can also surprise. And that a piece can be useful, decorative and have a great sense of humour.

Useful, decorative. And with a great sense of humour.

DA RODA AO PINCEL

Aos 13 anos começou a trabalhar o barro. Aos 16 já era mestre oleiro. Hoje, no Redondo, Xico Tarefa dá forma às peças na roda enquanto Zeza, sua colaboradora, e às vezes Teresa, sua mulher, o ajudam a pintar a expressão final.
