Mount

A 4-mile dirt road turns off the desert highway east of Borrego Springs, slow and sandy, climbing a long ridge in Anza-Borrego. The cars stop at the rim. The badlands fall away below: eroded mudstone and sandstone laid down when the Gulf of California still reached this far north, now a four-million-year cross-section of a sea that drained. Father Font, who came through with the Anza expedition in 1776, called it the sweepings of the earth. Late in the day the light catches every ridge edge and the whole valley turns the colour of a kept coal. Nobody talks much at the rim.

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