These Remarkably Endless Looping GIFs Were Created by a Blind Artist

Native American artist George Redhawk using his remaining sight to create wonderful GIFs even though he’s legally blind. With help from computer software, the designer employs the art of gif-making to show others how he perceives the world as a man who suddenly lost his vision.

His current work, a mesmerizing fusion of still and morphing motion, titled ‘The World Through My Eyes.’

“I was possessed, up day and night, trying to see everything I could,” Redhawk says. “That drove me to an appreciation of art.”

Out of desperation, Redhawk started using his sight to find everything beautiful that he could commit to memory — to, as it took it with him.
