What, who and where is inspiring me at the moment.

Well Bristol’s certainly a creative hub. Who’d have thought there would be a city who’s main export seems to be circus performers! I find it absolutely amazing, really enlivening, moving here has completely re-generated my creative output for the better. There are many amazing ethically sound grassroots creative projects out there, supported by a great neibourhood arts team at the council, take the cycle festival for instance, the whole thing was brilliant, the carnival was one of the best days of the year. The Invisible Circus produce/host such a variety of events, these people just can’t stop creating it seems, they seem to be a major hub, there’s obviously a creative community who are determined to just get on with being artists, whatever it takes. I recently came across Antler as well, another group of artists who are using underused spaces, ones to watch I think! And of course, there’s the peoples republic of stokes croft and Hamilton House across the road. So much going on! It’s absolutely amazing, every last brick of it.
