Oz Maria (Biggest Eyes)
The self-proclaimed record holder for the largest eyes in the world, you certainly aren’t going to get any arguments from us! Born in the Kyiv suburb of Irpen (where lots of Russian tanks deservedly got blown to bits), Maria could easily be mistaken for an owl, but one that does photography and surreal animation rather than the kind that hoots all night and eats mice. She’s also an accomplished model who has done high-profile shoots with Atlas, Bvlgari, and Elle Magazine. She has stated that because of Russia’s war, she hasn’t gotten as much work as she did in the past, but we’re confident the future will be bright for our Ukrainian friend.
