Mount

At the southern tip of the El Paso Mountains, where State Route 14 climbs out of the Mojave toward Owens Valley. Striated cliffs of pink, white, and brick-red tuff stand above Ricardo Campground, cut by roughly twelve million years of wind and the slow movement of the Garlock Fault below. The canyon has been a filming location for Jurassic Park and a long bench of Westerns before that. The Kawaiisu people lived in this stretch long before California took it as a state park in 1968. The desert holds its colour into the last twenty minutes of light, then goes the bruised purple it owes the night.

— from the studio

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