Mount

A shallow reef along Maui's southwest shore, about six miles end to end, between Lahaina and Mā'alaea. Some of the coral colonies here are over five hundred years old. Marine biologists call it the mother reef. Its spawning corals release larvae that drift on the Auau Channel current and reseed the reefs of Lāna'i, Moloka'i, and Kaho'olawe. The water is usually clear in the morning, before the trade winds push up. Green sea turtles work the inshore edge. Manta rays come in to a cleaning station off the point. Nothing about the place announces itself from the highway.

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