A learning-disabled artist from Belfast is set to publish his autobiography this month during the Bounce Arts Festival.
Lary MacAree lives in the L’Arche Community on the Ormeau Road, and grew up in Whiteabbey before his family moved to South Belfast in 1978 during the turmoil of the Troubles.
Larry’s childhood plays a huge part in his art as it details both the everyday parts of his life as well as traumatic events such as the day a gun shot came through the window of his home, smashing a statue of the Virgin Mary.
