After being diagnosed with Alzheimer?s Disease in 1995, artist William Mutermohlen set out to document himself slipping away through a series of self-portraits. His project spanned 8 years and displays the decline of his motor and perceptual skills in addition to the emotional aspects associated with losing his reality. Mutermohlen?s project has given psychologists insight on how to better understand this disease that affects over 1 in 8 elderly Americans and all of those who knew and loved them. See more self-portraits at WilliamUtermohlen.org and find out more behind this amazing story in this New York Times article.
