Esbati, Farnood
Iran, 1993
The artist Farnood Esbati, born in Tehran in 1993, Asperger’s syndrome was diagnosed in childhood. Today, it’s understood that this characterization, instead of reducing the person to their neurodiversity, actually opens the door to a realm of otherness that remains to be fully explored. Thus, young Farnood, instead of speaking, began drawing and painting on walls. Furthermore, later on, his passion for reading and books, which he continues to avidly collect, greatly enriched his spectrum.
