From the Art in Embassies Program:
"Born in Camaguey, Cuba in 1955, DEMI is one of the most critically acclaimed Cuban-American artists working in the United States. She depicts a vibrant and intimate universe centered upon children, but hers is neither a sugar-coated nor an innocent vision. DEMI paints luminous and powerful children whose lives have been exposed to the vagaries of the adult world. DEMI has first-hand knowledge of the plight of children whose fates are altered by devastating events."

No apparent condition concerns.
