Good and Evil draws from the visual language of iconography to explore faith, protection, and the eternal struggle between light and darkness. In this work, Saint George appears not only as a legendary figure, but as a deeply personal symbol—the artist’s own patron and protector.

 

While the figure may echo aspects of the artist himself, the meaning extends beyond the personal. Zura suggests that each individual carries a guardian, and that every family holds its own sense of protection and belief. The presence of the dragon is equally symbolic, reflecting the duality within human nature—the coexistence of strength and vulnerability, light and shadow.

 

Executed in mixed media on canvas, including gold leaf, acrylic, graphite, and charcoal, the work bridges sacred tradition with contemporary expression. Good and Evil stands as both a personal reflection and a universal meditation on faith, struggle, and inner balance.
