Le Petit Prince is a heartwarming series by Slovenian photographer Matej Peljhan that features a sweet 12-year-old boy named Luka engaging in activities he would otherwise be incapable of taking part in due to his ongoing battle with muscular dystrophy—a degenerative disease that progressively weakens the musculoskeletal system over time. His movement is restricted to minor finger movements to operate his electric wheelchair and slowly draw with a pen.
Imagine a world where the sight impaired can read almost any publication without it being specially printed in Braille.
