Stephen Wiltshire draws Tokyo from memory

One of Stephen’s extraordinary abilities is to memorize landscapes up to the highest detail. During this flight he had a thorough look at the view of the Japanese capital from the helicopter including thousands of buildings, towers, high-ways, cars, buses, even down to intricate details of trees and windows.

Following the 30 minutes ride Stephen seemed to be very excited and ready for the challenge.

Stephen Wiltshire MBE, Hon.FSAI., is a British architectural artist of West Indian ancestry who has been diagnosed with autism. He is known for his ability to draw from memory a landscape after seeing it just once.
