ARTICHOKES' NEW OUTDOOR EXHIBIT


Horses are once again roaming the grounds of Mission Farms in an outdoor exhibit from ARTichokes.  You will have to see it to believe how incredible and eye-catching these beautiful horse sculptures are. 

Artist Rachel Wilson creates her remarkable found wood sculptures from Osage-orange limbs, otherwise known as "Hedge".  Wilson collects the fallen hedge branches from their crop and cattle farm in Reeds, Missouri to sculpt life-size figures inspired by her life on the farm.  The exhibit includes six horses and two dear which are positioned on the property near the lake at Mission Farms.  These sculptures are for sale.  Inquire at www.artichokeskc.com or (913)322-9481
