Mount

Two churches stacked on one hill at the western edge of Assisi: the lower one dim and low, the upper one tall and full of light. The land was once called the Hill of Hell, where the town carried out its executions; after Francis was laid here it became the Hill of Paradise. Inside, the walls hold some of the first painting in Italy to look like people standing in real space. Pilgrims still come down the stairs to the crypt and go quiet at the tomb. Many of them are not Catholic. It doesn't seem to matter.

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