Art That Made Us (BBC2)

Homepage


Art That Made Us is an alternative history of the British Isles told through art. Across 8 episodes and 1500 years, artists and academics engage with music, painting, writing, design and sculpture to tell a story of upheaval and renewal, and how our culture has been shaped by significant moments from the Middle Ages to the present day. 

I edited 2 episodes in this specialist factual series (ep 2 about the fallout of the Black Death directed by Russell Barnes, and ep 8 from the 50s til the present day directed by Jude Ho) as well as working on several other episodes across the series.

'Just wonderful...the music supervision is so uniquely done. Fascinating series' Lauren Laverne, BBC 6Music
