Twelve sharp peaks of pale quartzite rising out of the brown peatlands of Connemara. The white of the stone catches whatever light is going: a low sun, the rim of a clearing storm, the silver moment before more rain. Drivers on the N59 watch them appear and vanish as the cloud moves. There are pull-offs near Letterfrack and Recess where nobody hurries to leave. The peaks have Irish names that don't quite count to twelve, depending on who's counting.

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