Doorway is the Drop-in Centre for homeless and marginalised people in North Wiltshire.
Pictures & Words was an art project, aimed at helping guests at Doorway, explore and express their thoughts and feelings using photography, collage and creative writing.
Each CD case holds an individual artwork, created during weekly workshops with artist, Julia Warin.
Julia worked with young teenage girls at The Girls Group, run by Barnardo’s. Over 10 weeks, they worked with collage, paint, drawing and words to create the elements which went into the finished mural panels for Barnardo’s offices.
Looking at colour combinations, words of popular songs, retro 60s and 70s graphics, textiles & design elements and considering positive, active images of girls, they generated a mass of material. All this was then combined to create the final piece, reflecting the bubbly excitement of the group and the diverse identities and interests of the girls.
A project with adults experiencing homelessness, facilitated by four artists working in both 2D and 3D media over several months at a drop-in centre in Trowbridge. A purpose-built studio was created as a safe and welcoming space fully equiped with materials and tools.

Numinous continues from where Kiosk stops. It takes the reverence of a product, logo, brand and the aspiration of ownership to the level of cult or religious awe. If a found object can convey and resonate meaning, how much more potent could the found designer label be? Numinous is as much a question as a statement.
Numinous was designed and made by Julia Warin with assistance from Jeff Pigott and technical support from Keith Wright.
