Flower with Zebra Patterned Leaves by Elena Ristova

Elena Ristova sets a single flowering stem against boldly patterned zebra-stripe leaves, creating a playful visual tension between the organic and the graphic. The composition is stripped back — generous white space, confident outlines, and a flat application of colour that reflects the artist's roots in textile design and screen printing. The contrast between the delicate bloom and the high-contrast animal-patterned foliage is witty and assured, delivered in a minimalist language that feels both contemporary and timeless.

As a canvas print produced in our Berlin studio, the woven surface adds gentle texture to the flat colour fields, deepening the palette and lending this graphic botanical illustration a tactile warmth that draws the eye in close.
