Artist Pays Homage To Famous Dyslexics

Titled “Faces,” the project began as an awareness campaign for the Dyslexia Association of Malaysia. The first round of scribbles included three portraits of iconic minds who happened to be dyslexic: Pablo Picasso, Albert Einstein and John Lennon. Because Low himself is dyslexic, he became personally invested in the project and continued his doodles past the original project.

“We used well-known celebrities who were dyslexics to illustrate that dyslexia is not a curse, but a gift,” Low said in an interview with the Daily Mail.
