"Epilepsy has been part of my life for many years, and its impact reaches far beyond the person living with the condition. Art has become a powerful way for me to reflect on both my own experiences and the ripple effects epilepsy has had on my family. By sharing these pieces, I hope to offer others a glimpse into those experiences, spark conversation, and help build greater understanding of life with epilepsy."

Stephanie Gowdy - Artist, Expressing Epilepsy participant
Art has the power as a visual medium to capture a range of experiences, helping us understand what it’s like to live with epilepsy.

 

Expressing Epilepsy is a visual campaign that puts artists and people living with epilepsy at the center.

Through powerful, personal artwork created by people who live this reality every day, we celebrate the creativity, strength and humanity of the epilepsy community.
