Excited to say I am one of four artists for this year’s Bristol Beacon residency programme (!!) To be given this opportunity is an honour and something I do not take lightly, thank you for having me @Bristol_beacon I will be developing a new live show for 2027 & creating my debut studio album. The journey will be a long and treacherous one but I hope to bring you along with me for the lumpy expedition with me 🗻 Psyched to be on this programme alongside old and new friends @lawianywar, @haalband & @javeonmusic and to share these beautiful photos by @12kmedia 📸ft. maybe my new favourite instrument - here I sit inside the beating heart valves of Bristol Beacon’s concert hall, The Britton Organ I could not have envisioned this without the incredible team of support, witchcraft(?) and writing guidance @mitoshkaa, @ze.zima & @nicola0rg < 3 Dream team amidst everyone else that has encouraged and believed in the weird sounds I congeal. Those close to me know that the application landscape has not always filled me with much enamour so I am especially grateful to sit alongside this absolutely killa alumni community- thank you !! This feels like the start of a new era & it’s funny how sometimes we don’t know the last one is ending until it already has < 3 < 3 < 3

Sometimes, creativity is in the background of a busy life, admin, and 100 other things… but flow always comes when you give it space. Mitoshka knows that best, busy working to make creative work happen for other artists rather than herself. This August, she decided to be a hermit and make something for herself, and what a joy that was! August of rest, August of play… Join in a month this autumn, to have a reason to make even when you’re not feeling like it. If my love was a stone, it would be too heavy for you to carry.

We’re not sure if anyone has heard yet (😉) but it’s time to officially announce our new co-directors! ⭐️ Mitoshka Alkova & Ellayah May will be stepping in as new leaders for Rising Arts Agency from the start of July. We are sad to see the current co-directors go, but it’s time to pass the baton on! 🌱 Stay tuned as the agency enters its last month of delivery before closing for our August of Rest. And THANK YOU if you showed up to our Decade of Rising Exhibition! We had a blast ☺️ [ID Slide 1: A tall white woman (Mitoshka) in a red top is stood next to a slightly less tall mixed-race woman (Ellayah) with her afro out. They have big smiles on their face and look very happy. There is a purple background, and text that reads ‘meet the next co-directors’ at the bottom of the page. The Rising Arts Agency logo is in the top right hand corner. ID Slide 2: A headshot of Mitoshka. She is white with blue eyes and shoulder length hair. She has blonde bits of hair framing her face. Her expression is warm, but serving looks! ID Slide 3: A headshot of Ellayah. She is mixed-raced with brown skin and has her afro out. She wears glasses and is giving a little smile. ID Slide 4: A candid picture of the new co-directors laughing in front of a green graffiti wall in Stokes Croft] 📸 - @josh.oc_visuals

There’s so much good happening in this country that goes unheard, unknown, and undersupported - The Soap Box at every Fête is just one small step (up!) to change this, so that we shine a light on all the work already happening to be a good neighbour.☀️ The incredible line up at our Fête of Bristol included: Danny Balla from @thebristolcommons @coexistuk Rich Ibbetson from Easton People’s Council Sarah from @artrefuge_ with typewriter artist @mitoshkaa 🧡
