The PIT invites photographers—both emerging and established—to submit their most powerful music photography for Sound Check, an exhibition that brings together reworked Bristol music event posters by leading contemporary artists and a curated selection of music photography that captures the city's enduring musical legacy.

Curated by renowned street artist Sickboy and Adam Devonshire, the exhibition will showcase work that embodies the raw energy of live music, the intimacy of backstage moments, and the unfiltered connection between artist and audience. This is your chance to exhibit in one of Bristol's most exciting new creative spaces—a gallery built for artists to take over and make their own.

Housed in a landmark Victorian former YMCA, The PIT is designed for cutting-edge exhibitions, immersive installations, and conceptual projects. The space features a curved mural wall visible from the street, an evolving canvas that becomes part of the exhibition itself, and a subversive basement built for film, UV, and blacklight installations. With its artist-led ethos, The PIT offers a unique opportunity to showcase photography alongside progressive names in contemporary art and music in a dynamic, ever-changing environment.

This exhibition isn't just about displaying photographs—it's about celebrating Bristol's rich music culture through the eyes of those who capture its most unforgettable moments.
