Persistent Bloom

is a show about re-wilding our art to persist in making as a wellness practice and as an act of resistance.

hosted by mel mitchell-jackson, a practicing artist and writer, we’ll question how status-quo systems, strategies, and ways of being an artist need to be re-molded to fit our real lives.

this podcast explores adaptation, chronic illness, and normalizing the rest or fallow period our bloom phases need.

by listening you’ll dismiss the pull of stagnation, connect with creative prompts, and find new ways of looking at the world through art.
