The largest living tree on earth, by volume, in the Giant Forest above the Kaweah River. Two thousand winters of cool fog and dry summer, all of it standing in one place. The bark alone is nearly two feet thick where the trail comes around the base. Up close the scale flattens. The camera can't hold it, and people set a hand on the rail and just look up. James Wolverton named the tree in 1879, for the general he had served under. The grove holds a silence most forests don't, because the canopy is too far up for any sound to come back.

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