The piazza keeps the shape of the Stadium of Domitian beneath it: a long oval where Romans once watched runners and now watch the light cross Bernini's Four Rivers fountain. The obelisk at the centre, the Borromini church on the west side, the cafés along the long curve. At Christmas the Befana stalls fill the space; in late afternoon, families and street painters move through. Three fountains. One church. One pope's family square, opened to the city. Nobody hurries.

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