In 2003 here on Boing Boing, Mark wrote:
"Judith Scott (born 1943), a fifty-five year old woman with Down's Syndrome, has spent the past ten years producing a series of totally non-functional objects which, to us, appear to be works of sculpture, except that the notion of sculpture is far beyond Judith's understanding. As well as being mentally handicapped, Judith cannot hear or speak, and she has little concept of language."
A friend of Boing Boing says, "I've just learned that she died last night."
We understand that a television segment about Ms. Scott's life and creative legacy may air soon on a network TV show. If so, we'll blog it here.
