“Dilemma”:
“Buddies”:
Preteen Wil C. Kerner has autism, a neurological condition that challenges his ability to learn and communicate. Completely on his own, Wil began displaying unique expressions in paper cutouts at age ten. Vivid colored papers and scissors in hand, Wil’s creative passion transcends his disability allowing him to share intriguing emotional and intellectual perspectives.
I find it interesting that so many of his pieces feature just a single eye. Autism is an interesting disorder and it’s fascinating to me when autistic kids are able to express their experience.
