A planned village on the northeast coast of Sardinia, built into the rose granite from 1962. The water is the green the Costa Smeralda was named for. Yachts arrive in summer; by late October the harbour empties. The architecture curves into the stone the way the stone curves into the sea, all rounded stucco and shaded courtyards designed to look as if the wind had shaped them. Stella Maris on the hill watches the boats come in. Nobody photographs the church when the light is right, late afternoon, the granite holding a little of the heat.

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