Mount

A glacial valley on the east side of Rocky Mountain National Park, just above Estes Park. In the second half of September the bull elk come down out of the timber to gather their harems on the meadow floor. The sound carries. A high, climbing whistle that drops into a series of guttural grunts, repeated at dusk and at dawn. Cars pull over at the meadow edges, windows down. The aspens behind the herd turn while the rut is on. The same handful of bulls gather harems on the same handful of acres the elk have used for thousands of years.

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