Mount

The aqueduct Rome left across the Gardon, north of Nîmes. Three tiers of arches in honey-coloured limestone, the lowest courses laid without mortar, stones cut to hold each other. It carried water from the springs at Uzès for nearly four centuries, then sat for fifteen hundred more while locals crossed the river on its lower deck. The river runs underneath the way it always has. Late afternoon is when the stone warms.

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