At the southern tip of the Lecale Peninsula, a tall striped tower keeps watch over the approach to Dundrum Bay. George Halpin Senior, who designed many of Ireland's lighthouses in the nineteenth century, drew it in the 1840s. The yellow-and-black bands came later, in 1954, added for daytime visibility. They are why anyone passing the headland remembers it. Two whitewashed keeper's cottages sit beside the tower, looked after now by the Irish Landmark Trust and let by the week. The road in is narrow and quiet, sheep on one side, the Irish Sea on the other.

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