Show Notes
Podcaster and director Poppy Jay is joined by her friend Martin at the V&A in London, where they indulge their love of sharing art and culture together among the museum’s vast collection. Pieces of design such as the Refugee Nation flag spark conversations about identity, migration and empire, while other works of art such as Tippoo’s Tiger – one of the museum’s most famous objects – prompt thoughts about protest and dissent. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
