Mount

In most Tuscan towns the center is a piazza you cross to reach the church. Here the center is the water. A long rectangle of warm mineral spring sits where the square should be, steaming in the same spot since Romans walked the Via Francigena south to Rome. Saint Catherine of Siena came for the heat. So did Lorenzo de' Medici. The water spills downhill to old mills cut into the rock. On a cold morning, before the day warms, the steam lifts off the surface and the whole village seems to breathe.

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