- Society & Culture
In this episode Sacha Coward explores The Sea Maidens at the Queens House in Greenwich. We discuss love, sexual and gender identities, and life bleeding through into the subjects of paintings. We take this painting as a starting point to explore the significance of mermaids more generally across time and geography.
Sacha is a freelance museum worker, he specialises in projects that involve queer history, escape rooms and mermaids... although rarely at the same time! He rambles a lot on twitter under @sacha_coward and spends a lot of time on trains.
