Mount

A short walk off the R726, three kilometres east of Carlow town. The capstone is granite, estimated at around 100 tonnes, and by most accounts the heaviest in Europe. It rests on three uprights, tilted as if set down in a hurry around six thousand years ago, and never lifted since. The field around it is flat, mostly given over to grazing. People arrive in twos and threes, walk the path, stand under the weight for a while, and turn back. Nobody says much.

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