Mount

The valley at the north end of the Kohala coast, where Highway 270 stops and the road ends. From the lookout the black-sand beach sits below, a long dark crescent at the foot of the cliffs. The sand is basalt the old Kohala volcano gave up over a long time. The trail down is short and steep; the surf is rough enough that swimming is not the point. Ironwood throws shade at the rim. Hawaiians farmed taro on the valley floor for centuries, until the last families moved out in the mid-1900s. The next valleys down the coast, Honokāne Nui and Honokāne Iki, are reachable on foot by people who know the way.

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