Australian Helen Whittle says it was painful to see her image of daughter used in mural in Mariupol
An Australian photographer has spoken of her pain and upset at what she has described as its unauthorised use of an image of her daughter as the basis for a pro-Russia mural on a bombed-out building in Mariupol.
Last week an Italian street artist, Ciro Cerullo, known as Jorit, announced he had completed the mural, which features a girl with the colours of the flag of the self-proclaimed Donetsk People’s Republic in her eyes, and behind her a falling bomb with the word “Nato”.
