After years of linking the condition to schizophrenia
and other mental disorders, autism was brought to
light when Donald Triplett was diagnosed with the
condition in 1943 by Austrian child Psychiatrist, Leo
Kanner. This was a breakthrough moment in medical
history. One that ended the admission of kids with
social flaws into institutions meant for the mentally
disturbed.
But what was supposed to be a game changer in how
we view people living with autism still hasn't made as
much impact as needed. Most people still don't
understand autism and its variations in the spectrum.
Being the father to a beautiful autistic daughter
gifted me the necessary education I need. And I want
this for millions of other people who may not know
much. Hence the EYETISTIC ART project.
This project aims to build awareness for autism. Also,
some proceeds from sales of each of the 4810 ART’s
from our collection will be going to autism charities
and institutions. This is our way of helping with
research, education, and awareness for this
condition.
