Two canals are most of what is left of the water Milan used to run on. The Naviglio Grande comes in from the Ticino, the Naviglio Pavese heads down toward Pavia, and they meet at the Darsena, the old port below Porta Ticinese. The inner ring was paved over in 1929; these two were spared. By day the towpaths are quiet and a washhouse alley still stands off the Grande. By evening the bars fill, the water goes the colour of the lights above it, and the city that paved its rivers comes back to the one it kept.

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