The photographic series entitled The Little Prince, created in 2013, is based on a true story of a 12-year old boy named Luka. Luka is a child with special needs - soon after birth, the doctors diagnosed him with spinal muscular atrophy. The effects are very severe - due to gradual and inevitable decay of motor nerve cells and muscle fibers, the muscles become paralyzed, and the results are increasingly grave problems in movement, stabilization of the trunk, swallowing and breathing.
