he was sent to a school for feeble-minded children. a simpleton of a boy who grew up into a man, ousted by normalcy. he didn't talk to anyone, moving around the world, awkwardly. his neighbors remember seeing him rummage through waste, thinking him weird. unknown to them, he was actually turning it into art. upon his death, they found what could perhaps be the world's longest illustrated novel. stories of children warriors, fighting those against the ways of the Christian world, as he believed it to be. conceptualized in juxtaposition to his life, he creates another world where he belongs, encapsulating within the many other imageries muted in light of this 'real' world. an artist extraordinaire, weaving art within his fingers and mind. moved by feelings and colored by the reality that he deemed real. through his art, we are given a glimpse into the world of a man nobody really knew. In the Realms of the Unreal. perhaps a most realistic world of worlds.
