Mount

A small white tower on a cliff at the western edge of Brittany, set among the ruined walls of a 6th-century abbey. From 1692 the monks of Saint-Mathieu kept a lamp lit in the upper window of the abbey, and sailors entering the Goulet de Brest knew the headland by that light. When the old tower failed, the present lighthouse was raised in 1835 to take over the duty. The Atlantic comes in hard here. The granite ruins keep their colour through the rain. A memorial to sailors lost at sea stands a few steps away.

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