Amazing Artist – Autism and the Human Camera
I came across a video of Stephen Wiltshire, a London artist who is an absolutely amazing artist. He’s able to look at something once, and draw it in amazing detail days later.
In this video, he’s taken up in a helicopter over the City of Rome and given a 45-minute aerial tour of the city. He spends the next three days drawing the entire city-scape, down the cars on the streets and the correct number of windows in the buildings – in amazing detail and exacting scale.
Truly an amazing talent and a gift the world. The fact he is autistic makes in even more amazing. Check out the video and see his website at http://www.stephenwiltshire.co.uk/
