Moonlight Sonata - Ankle Socks

Xiao Yi is a young woman with moderate intellectual disabilities at Maria Social Welfare Foundation, where she normally tends to plants in the horticultural group. Due to a difficult birth, doctors used forceps, which caused damage to her cerebral cortex, leading to developmental delays and epilepsy. However, her mother and grandmother never gave up on her. From a young age, they took her to learn pottery and painting, hoping she could express her feelings through art. Xiao Yi started painting at a very young age, but her work was always very rigid. It wasn't until Ms. Shu-Zhi, an art volunteer at Maria, began to understand Xiao Yi's inner world through conversation and guided her to paint from her imagination. Her teacher's notebook is filled with records of Xiao Yi's joys and worries, big and small. Xiao Yi's artwork began to show "Xiao Yi's style," earning her numerous awards in competitions. Her emotions also became more stable; the Xiao Yi who used to get angry easily now smiles often! "Everyone needs to be understood." Rather than art therapy healing Xiao Yi, perhaps it was the deep sense of being understood that brought out her smile? ■ The world's first pair of antibacterial socks created by individuals with intellectual disabilities. ■ Knitting one pair of socks = recycling 2 PET bottles. ■ Size: 22-26cm (fits M-L) ■ Winner of the 2023 Taichung City Top Ten Souvenir Award, Grand Slam Champion.
