If you’ve ever wondered how people with schizophrenia see the world, Louis Wain offered a window into their minds. When he was diagnosed with the disorder, people noticed discernible changes in his work. The sequence of illustrations became more fragmented, reflecting his declining mental state. Today, experts use his paintings as a visual example of a schizophrenic mind.

WORD OF THE DAY
