The church where Gothic begins, and the place the kings of France went home to. Abbot Suger rebuilt the choir here in the 1140s, asked the walls to step back, and let the colour in. Forty-three kings and thirty-two queens lie carved in stone below the new light: Dagobert, the Capetians, Louis XIV, Marie Antoinette, returned to the crypt after the Revolution stripped the abbey of its tombs. Visitors walk the ambulatory quietly. The colour does most of the talking.

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