A small walled graveyard at the end of a country lane, eight kilometres north of Drogheda. Inside it: two ruined churches, three sandstone high crosses cut in the tenth century, and a round tower with its cap gone. Muiredach's Cross stands about five and a half metres tall and still carries the figures of Adam and Eve, the Last Judgement, and Christ in glory, though a thousand years of County Louth weather have softened the deepest carvings. The gate is open and the grass is kept short.
Slowly infused into the ceramic surface under high heat and pressure, in our family studio in Knoxville, Tennessee.
