Bernadette is a 1984 R.C. Gorman papercast from an edition of 60. The papercast process casts the artist’s imagery in layered paper relief, catching light along every contour in a way flat prints cannot.
Gorman’s gallery catalog spans prints, drawings, sculpture, and ceramics, and this work sits within that celebrated tradition. Papercasts show to advantage under raking light, where the layered relief throws soft shadows across the surface. It suits collections focused on papercast work by R.C. Gorman and makes a grounded acquisition for collectors of Southwestern art and Native American fine art.
The gallery ships with care and can provide further photographs and condition details for this piece on request.
