Autistic art

Autistic art is, as the name suggests, art made by autistic people. However, based on our observations, it seems what a lot of autistic art has in common is a high level of detail, use of patterns, and/or a vibrant use of colors. Use of colors may be informed and driven by synesthesia, while the level of detail relates to hyper-systemizing, and we found a link to myopia as well.
