Mount

A preserved ghost town in the Pajarito Mountains of southern Arizona, about four miles north of the border. Ruby was a lead, zinc and silver camp that worked through the 1920s and 1930s and shut down for good in 1941, when the last ore train left and the company houses were locked. Most of the buildings are still standing — the schoolhouse, the jail, the mine office, the company store — held in place by dry desert air and private stewardship. Two small lakes sit at the floor of the canyon, and the road in is unpaved gravel that turns to clay after rain.

from the studio

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