Mount

A low ridge of ruined churches and high crosses, on the east bank of the Shannon in County Offaly. Saint Ciarán founded the monastery here in 544, where the river met the great east-west esker road across Ireland. For nine centuries it was a centre of learning, raided, rebuilt, raided again, and then in 1552 broken by an English garrison riding out from Athlone. What stands now is stone and silence. The crosses in the visitor centre are the originals; the ones on the grass are replicas the weather is allowed to work on. Pattern day is still kept on the ninth of September.

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