Through an extensive interview and interactive process, the varied interactions furthered my understanding of these individuals and spurred my desire to construct a visual representation of them and their personalities apart from a medical diagnosis. As I delved deeper into this work and research, I began to gain a greater sensibility for these individuals and their placement or roles in our society.enAutismAutism in today's societyArt and photographyStimmingFamily and relationshipsStimThesis
