Blonde Girl Matter, oil on canvas, 36" x 36", 2014.
In 2013, the young Maria was found in Greece with her adoptive Gypsy family. Police soon assumed that Maria was kidnapped. Police thought the parents could not have a blonde daughter like Maria due to their dark features. Her adoptive parents were later arrested. It became a huge international story.
After more than a month of international reports and attention, the authority found out that Maria’s birth parents were also gypsy. Maria's mother gave her to her adoptive parents. This news grabbed extreme amount of attention, while hundreds of children were abducted with little attention. I painted Maria in the center surrounded by some of the media stories and pictures of many other missing children which did not get such media coverage.
