A ceramic sculpture depicts two zebras reclining in a compact, horizontal composition. Its matte, charcoal-gray surface is smooth, contrasted by glossy, recessed stripes of pale celadon-blue edged in tan. One zebra curves across the foreground, its legs and hooves tucked inward. Behind it, a second figure looks forward, revealing wide-set eyes and a blunt snout. The rhythmic stripes follow the contours of their rounded, interlocking forms.
