Aquileia was one of the largest cities of the Roman world, close to a hundred thousand people, until Attila came through in 452. Most of it is still down there, under the wheat and the vines, never excavated. What surfaced is the floor: seven hundred and sixty square metres of fourth-century mosaic inside the basilica, a sea full of fish, a rooster facing a tortoise, crossed now on a glass walkway. People come for the day from Grado and leave quiet. The city is a field. The floor is still bright.

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