Mount

A walled village on the Alsace Wine Route, thirteen kilometres northwest of Colmar. The houses lean toward each other across narrow streets, timber-framed, painted in faded ochres and pinks and blues that have been there since the Renaissance. The medieval core came through both world wars largely intact, and the same shutters still close at dusk on the same cobbled lanes. Riesling vineyards rise on the slopes above the wall. In late afternoon the Dolder gate throws its long shadow back across the centre of town, and the colour the houses keep is the colour they were given five centuries ago.

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