Description

Did you know that zebras’ stripes are associated with harmony in some cultures? The black and white blending and balancing of opposites mimics the Eastern yin-yang symbol making this a most beautiful, unusual and peaceful choice of seating. The attention to detail makes this a must-have for the animal lover!


 


ARTIST STATEMENT/INFLUENCE: 
I am fascinated by the abstracted geometric designs that are prevalent in nature. I also strive to create images that are bold and simple, and zebras easily fall into both categories.
