Eight years-old Nasreen is the youngest child in a family of
four children - a sister and two brothers. She was diagnosed
having mild autism disorder at the age of three.
Since the age of four, Nasreen was observed to have the talent and passion for drawing. She
insisted that these drawings would be displayed on the walls of the living room
of the family home or on the refrigerator door in the kitchen.
From stick drawings of human faces and figures, they spread
to cars, buildings, the skies and the seas. Details to the facial features
could be observed in these early drawings, especially emphasising long and
curly eye lashes.
Lady luck was on Nasreen’s side when teacher Seeling agreed
to take Nasreen into her art class. Her first session with Seeling started in
the third quarter of 2013. To date she has more than 40 paintings under the
tutelage of Seeling, covering human figures, animals, fruits, flowers and still
life.
Nasreen’s current focus in her paintings is on chickens some
of which are displayed in this exhibition.
Nasreen attends school at Sekolah Pendidikan Khas,
Cheras Indah and she is currently in Standrd Two. To enhance her language development,
Nasreen also enrols in speech therapy classes which is now entering the fourth year. Her biomedical therapy
which addresses physiological and physical development issues is also into the
fourth year.
