Bristol Beacon


Winner of Transform Awards Europe 2022 

“Rosa is astonishing. Her clarity of thought and vibrant, playful creativity produce extraordinary results. She is a true artist, and working with her has been unforgettable and inspiring.”

– Nick Eagleton from Saboteur Studio




Brief

I was honoured to be selected to lead this transformative project for the largest cultural music venue in Bristol, with the support of Saboteur Studio and Rising Arts Agency. The visual rebrand was the final step in shedding the building’s ties to slave trader Edward Colston. Put simply, the mission was to set music free



Concept

My goal was to craft a design that was expressive, personal, inclusive, and unfiltered. It was important to me that the concept be created by hand to convey genuine care and human touch.

I centred the design around the idea of an expanding source of light, a metaphor for the venue's influence and reach in the city. This light could be made louder or quieter, dynamically adjusting to suit the message and mood.

The mural is intended to draw the viewer in and up the stairs, and provides different meanings/connections depending on the view point.

Most of all, I wanted the visual identity to be welcoming and joyful – a bright departure from its previous ties.
