Bixby Creek Bridge
$22.00
Concrete arch on the Big Sur coast, opened in 1932 to give Highway 1 a way across the canyon mouth. Two hundred and eighty feet below, the surf works the rocks at the cove. Hurricane Point sits just to the north. Most mornings the fog burns off by mid-morning. Before the bridge, the inland detour took eleven extra miles. After it, Big Sur stopped being unreachable in winter. The arch still reads white against the sea from a long way off.
Slowly infused into the ceramic surface under high heat and pressure, in our family studio in Knoxville, Tennessee.
