Back at the United Nations in New York

In celebration of World Autism Awareness Day on April 2, the United Nations will host Perceptions of Sentience, a group exhibition featuring the works of 24 neurodiverse artists. Curated to spark dialogue around mental health and unconventional expressions of environmental awareness, the exhibition includes J.A.’s painting Second Movement. Notably, J.A.’s artwork Victory was previously selected for the UN’s commemorative Autism Awareness postage stamp in 2012.

Organized by Strokes of Genius, Inc. and endorsed by the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA), the exhibition runs from April 1 to June 13, 2025, at the United Nations headquarters in New York.
