This original work, «Magpie», was created by contemporary Russian artist Derun Ekaterina and is available for purchase online.
Ekaterina Derun’s painting «Magpie» is a stylized, almost mosaic-like depiction of an urban bird, executed in a unique manner that combines realism with geometric abstraction.
At the center of the composition is a magpie perched on a horizontal bar. The artist completely reinterprets the traditional image of the bird, presenting its body as a structure made up of numerous connected geometric planes. Each part of the plumage—head, chest, wings, tail—is composed of triangles and polygons painted in various shades of blue, black, white, and light gray. This creates a faceted effect, reminiscent of origami or a digital model.
The magpie’s legs are also stylized, with sharp, angular toes. The bird’s gaze is directed downward, giving it a thoughtful or alert appearance.
The background of the painting is also done in a geometric style: it consists of many triangles and polygons in different shades of yellow, ochre, and blue. This may be a stylized depiction of a city wall, window, or an abstract urban landscape surrounding the bird.
Derun’s «Magpie» is not just a portrait of a bird but a reflection on how the urban environment influences our perception of nature. The artist creates an image that is simultaneously recognizable and unique, emphasizing the adaptation of wildlife to the anthropogenic landscape.
This painting can be hung on the wall in your apartment, house, office, restaurant, or hotel, and it will become a wonderful decoration for your interior.
