Hill of Tara
$22.00
A grassy hill in County Meath, low and wide, where the High Kings of Ireland were crowned for over a thousand years. The earthworks are barely there now, soft rings of grass holding the shape of Iron Age ramparts. The Lia Fáil still stands on the Forrad, the Stone of Destiny that was said to cry out when the rightful king touched it. On a clear day the Boyne Valley opens out below it and the land runs for miles in every direction. The wind comes from everywhere. Sheep graze the ring of Cormac's House. People walk the path slowly and don't say much.
Slowly infused into the ceramic surface under high heat and pressure, in our family studio in Knoxville, Tennessee.
