The complex of brick halls and shops Trajan and Apollodorus of Damascus carved into the side of the Quirinal Hill, just after 100 AD. Six terraced levels of tabernae open onto a great curved hemicycle that still defines the silhouette above the Forum. For centuries it has been called the world's oldest shopping mall, though historians now read it more as an administrative quarter that happened to include shops. What survives is the brick, opus latericium, the colour of slow afternoons. The medieval Torre delle Milizie, added a thousand years later, still keeps watch above.

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