Healing Through Creativity showcases artwork created by clients (aged between 11-17) of Yellow Door, a Southampton-based charity providing vital support to people who have experienced, or are at risk of experiencing, interpersonal harm.

Through paintings and drawings, this powerful exhibition celebrates the courage, resilience, and personal growth of the artists. Created during their journey of support with Yellow Door, each piece offers you a unique insight into experiences of healing, self-discovery, and empowerment.

The collection reflects the strength and individuality of those who have chosen creativity as a means of expression, communication, and recovery. Together, these artworks tell stories of hope, survival, and transformation. Yellow Door invites you to engage with lived experiences through the artists' own voices and perspectives.

By bringing these deeply personal journeys into the public space, Healing Through Creativity aims to foster understanding, empathy, and connection, while highlighting the profound role that art can play in rebuilding confidence, identity, and wellbeing.
