Viaduc de Millau
$22.00
A cable-stayed bridge across the Tarn valley in southern France, opened in December 2004. Norman Foster's drawing, Michel Virlogeux's engineering. Seven white piers, the tallest reaching 343 metres at the mast tip, taller than the Eiffel Tower. The road it carries is the A75 from Clermont-Ferrand toward the Mediterranean. On certain mornings fog settles into the Tarn and the bridge stands above it, the way mountains do.
Slowly infused into the ceramic surface under high heat and pressure, in our family studio in Knoxville, Tennessee.
