Mount

An island in the Seine, set between the Left and Right Banks. The Parisii lived here three centuries before Rome arrived, and the city kept building outward from this point. Notre-Dame at the eastern end, Sainte-Chapelle and the Conciergerie at the western. The Marché aux Fleurs still opens at Place Louis-Lépine through the week. The bells of Notre-Dame rang again in December of 2024, after five years of scaffolding and saws and the quiet of a closed nave. From the Pont Neuf, the prow of the island looks out at both banks at once.

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