Mount

Five grey dolomite towers above a meadow southwest of Cortina. In summer the chairlift runs from Bai de Dones, the wildflowers come up at the base, and the trenches the Italian and Austro-Hungarian armies cut into this rock a century ago are open to walk. Climbers have worked these faces for generations; the hut at the top of the lift is named for the Scoiattoli di Cortina. Late in the day the pale stone holds the warm light longer than the meadow does. People come down off the loop slow, and nobody hurries the last hour.

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