Flora

By Jo Hess, Installed 1991

Flora sculptre

The works of sculptor Jo Hess are found throughout the U.S. in sculpture parks, gardens, airports and private homes. 

Although she completed many commissions in the form of busts and life-size portrait sculptures, her personal favorite pieces were those which represented the beauty and grace she saw in her home town of Mobile, Alabama.

This sculpture is titled ‘Flora’. It is a life-size figure of a young woman kneeling in her garden. Editions of ‘Flora’ are found in several sculpture  parks throughout the U.S., as well as in museum gardens and in private collections. It is Jo Hess’ signature piece.
