About Maria Arias

3Exhibitions

Maria Arias is a Venezuelan-French artist living in Houten, where she has found a deep sense of home in this open and welcoming environment.

In 2007, she read about a heartbreaking exhibition in which a starving dog was used as "art." That moment changed her life forever. She launched several campaigns to help stray animals in Venezuela and organised sterilisation programmes from the Netherlands. However, after witnessing immense cruelty, she decided to contribute to animal welfare in a different way.

About this artwork

Wolves are back, after 140 years, they are back in the Netherlands.

Wolves are beautiful creatures, mighty with strategies, and sometimes unfortunately misunderstood. Some species are endangered. They are also loyal, robust, social, and friendly. Wolves are great communicators: they can use touch, body language, eye contact, and many vocal expressions. They are the symbol of victory, deep faith, and passion. As a half-Celtic woman, the wolf is an excellent guide and a symbol of transformation.

Wolves change rivers! They create balance. There is a story when they were reintroduced into Yellowstone National Park in 1995. Wolves started hunting elk that had been destroying willows and aspens along the park’s waterways. The trees began coming back, and with them, beavers to build dams. The rivers began to hold their course, and less erosion was evident. They save the river.
