When you’re a mother, sometimes, you’re faced with choices that can make a great difference in your child’s life, especially if your child is neuro-divergent, says Moi. “She had intractable epilepsy which can’t be controlled by medication and would fall to the floor in a seizure, often ending up with bruises, and bleeding.
“That might not seem very advanced to many, but for someone who’s neuro-divergent and diagnosed as intellectually and developmentally disabled, she had come very far and as her mother, I’m really proud of her,” she adds.Moi with the 'Puzzle of Life', an artwork by her late daughter, an epileptic artist at Janet Lee Gallery. The gallery is now part of an initiative to help other mothers of neurodivergent artists with their journey.
“Nevertheless, because of her love for colours, I decided to continue. And I’m really glad that we did,” she shares. It was with this in mind that the House of Janet Lee – a name suggested by Joanne – was launched end of last year, to support and mentor the mothers of similarly talented artists.
