A blind box

Wonky Legend of the month
This month’s (not so) wonky legend is Mohamed Babahoum—a late-blooming artist who didn’t pick up a pen until his 70s. At first, he cheekily passed off his drawings as his grandson’s, but now he proudly shares his whimsical visions of rural Morocco: donkeys daydreaming, goats in trees, palm-fringed wells, and cane-waving elders —everyday wonders from his world near Essaouira. His bold, childlike marks dance across old boxes and scrap paper, capturing life with honesty, humour, and heart. A reminder that creativity has no age limit.
