Antelope Canyon Upper

A short ground-level slot in Navajo Sandstone on the LeChee Chapter of the Navajo Nation. The Diné name is Tsé bighánílíní, the place where water runs through rocks. From late March through early October, around midday, the sun drops vertical beams to the canyon floor. Tours are guided by Navajo families. A few minutes of light, and then it is gone.

Slowly infused into the ceramic surface under high heat and pressure, in our family studio in Knoxville, Tennessee.
