Maria uses words, photography and film to promote her strong vegan values across an enormous variety of media outlets. Maria is a dedicated animal ambassador and has worked closely with many animal charities; most recently, in collaboration with Animals Asia, she created a collection called Under the Asian Moon, which tells the story of rehabilitated bears which have lived through the unimaginable torture in bear bile farms. However, Maria aims to stand up for what she believes in, through her creative activism, in the commercial world as well as her work with charities to educate a wider audience about animal injustices around the world. Maria spoke to Vegan Life about her exhibition and what she hopes to achieve through her photography.
