Created as a direct emotional reaction to the current age of anxiety over the last two years, this series of monochromatic painted biro drawings tries to find sense in an unpredictable, precarious world. A stream of consciousness feed, aspiring to explore higher states, but invaded by intrusive thoughts of industrial genocide, growing fascism, rampant consumerism, unaccountable oligarchy, media overload and social isolation, while the world careers blindly towards climate breakdown…

Figures scratched in jagged black outlines dug furiously into the paper, jostle with ink-washed shadows in broken urban landscapes. Sharp-edged, gritty, and distorted, but also lyrical, dreamlike, and darkly humorous; the pictures are striving to evolve the ideal form to encompass everything we feel in these dark ages.

Mike Stuart studied Fine Art at Goldsmiths in the 80s, alongside some of the Brit Art movement artists. He exhibits regularly in Bristol. His work is influenced by baroque and renaissance painting, comic art, street art, the attitude of punk… and cats.

Today on The Word with Miranda at 4pm we will be joined by one of the UK's fastest growing and exciting musicians ALT BLK ERA.
They are the genre-smashing UK sister duo Nyrobi and Chaya who are redefining music by fusing Rock with Alt Pop, DnB, Rap and Electronic beats.
​
Hailed as ‘Ones to Watch 2025’ by BBC Music Introducing these twice MOBO Awards nominated (2024; 2025) artists have stormed the UK music scene with standout performances at iconic festivals that include Glastonbury Festivals, Download Festival and Reading Festival.

​The sisters have also garnered rave reviews from the likes of NME, REVOLVER Magazine & Kerrang!

Their debut album Rave Immortal (Jan 2025) has already caught the attention of the BRIT Awards and MTV UK who have featured them across their social platforms. Waterfalled tracks from the album have lit up UK TV, radio, and Spotify editorial playlists and the sisters boast a strong following across their music and social network.

​Beyond the music, they advocate for hidden disability awareness and inclusivity in the music industry, inspired by Nyrobi’s personal journey - a key theme of Rave Immortal.

​Their live performances are an unforgettable experience - a high-energy showcase that defies convention that will leave you demanding more.

We are also talking about 'ADHD and late diagnosis'. With rumours of 5 years waiting list just to get a diagnosis and the massive rise in understanding neurodiversity we are now discovering the superpowers that can be harnessed. Lisa from Interculture: training and events will be joining us ahead of their next event tomorrow at Knowle West Media Centre and talking from a very personal perspective Lisa shared her own journey.

Tune in from 4-6pm to listen to what will no doubt be a very lively discussion about one of the most talked about fields in health and wellbeing.

And finally I am really excited to share the amazing work of
UWE Bristol students from the UWE Journalism Masters Course, Iacope Di Girolamo, Aidan Finnigan and Archie Mcwatt in conversation with the groundbreaking artist Sambee.
