The Art World of Max Zolo

By Max Zolo

The Art World of Max Zolo is an authentic representation of triumph for a struggling young Black artist with cerebral palsy and ADHD pursuing a career in animation. The Japanese expression "wabi sabi" means a world view centered on the acceptance of transience and imperfection. With guts and full transparency in his original art and in his own words, Max shares his world view, revealing his own personal strengths and weaknesses, insights and dreams, and hope for creating a more compassionate and loving society. In this honest self-portrait of a gifted storyteller and character developer, readers meet the many sides of Max as he explores emotions ranging from pain to romance and love. A self-proclaimed "otaku" (Japanese for the pop culture obsession), Max reflects on his passion for anime and Japanese culture and how it inspires his own creativity. Readers will be inspired by his unvarnished truth about coping with his own mental health and living with different abilities, and his mission to redefine ability in a society obsessed with ableism.
