Excerpt from artist’s Impact Statement: "My vision behind my creative interpretation is related to the three main mental disabilities Dr. Gunnar Dybwad studied: Autism, Down’s Syndrome, and Cerebral Palsy. The suit he is wearing connects the three conditions, represented by colors and symbols associated with each."
