'Every human has a rich life worth hearing about, though very few have the support or confidence to ever publish their story.'
A learning-disabled artist from Belfast is set to publish his autobiography this month during the Bounce Arts Festival.
The book is illustrated with a selection of his own drawings as well as remarkable analogue photographs collected by Larry through the years. Damien Coyle, Chief Executive of the University of Atypical said: “Larry was a worthy winner of a Chris Ledger award in 2021. He was the first learning disabled artist to receive a major award from us.
Susan said: "Every human has a rich life worth hearing about, though very few have the support or confidence to ever publish their life story. Larry is certainly not lacking in confidence, but the support of the Chris Ledger award has made it possible to design, publish and launch his life story and fulfil his dream."
An essay that accompanies the exhibition was commissioned by the writer Ingrid Lyons in which she writes of her observations and feelings when encountering Larry’s work, of his unique voice as a storyteller and his amazing eye for detail.
