Zura Georgian-American, b. 1969
A charming and surreal diptych, Two Birds presents twin avian characters — each grasping a fish in its beak — across two separate canvases. Zura’s playful yet poised composition creates a silent conversation between the two creatures: mirrored, yet distinct.
Two Birds joins Zura’s vivid series of animal works (Rhino, Goat, Birdman) but stands out for its diptych form and quirky aura. It leans into narrative and character more overtly than some of his larger, more elemental pieces.
