Heloise Christa Shelf Sculpture, Woman Portrait ($250)
Take home a piece of Taliesin Fellowship history, with this beautiful bronze-casted shelf sculpture by Heloise Crista. In addition to Woman Portrait, a variety of sizes and styles of Heloise’s sculptures are also available for purchase.
Heloise joined the Taliesin Fellowship in 1949, not to become an architect, but rather to be in “the atmosphere of such ideas and such people as Mr. and Mrs. Wright and the community of apprentices.” Over time, Heloise became known for her sculpture, an interest sparked at Taliesin. Her sculptures have been incorporated throughout the campus at Taliesin West—where they continue to inspire visitors.
