Tasha, 1981, bronze sculpture by R.C. Gorman, captures a commanding standing Navajo woman in traditional dress, her form rendered in three dimensions with the artist’s signature attention to pose and presence. The patina reveals warm copper and brown tones across the artist’s skilled modeling of the woven skirt and sculptural torso. Her confident posture with hand resting on hip conveys both dignity and strength, while the vertical striations suggest textile tradition and cultural identity. A remarkable example of Gorman’s work beyond print media, showcasing his mastery of sculptural form and the depth of his artistic vision.
