This episode is a burst of unbridled beauty to nudge us out of the winter torpor and into the spring light of March. We’ll reflect on the balance of graft and inspiration as we head to the Van Cleef & Arpels ‘Dance Reflections’ festival, discover Lebanese embroidery with the duo behind Bokja and explore the world of tarot as we embark on a journey with the cards through time.

Music, books and art are what sustain us through a period of hunkering down, so it should come as no surprise that these are also the themes of this month’s episode. We head to the Swiss town of Baden to meet musician Daniela Weinmann, who goes by the moniker Odd Beholder; speak with Irish writer Eimear McBride and head to Burgundy for a site-specific art exhibition called ‘Terra’.
