Ruth Naomi Floyd & Mark Meynell: Music for the Broken

But what if art is actually a divinely gifted set of tools, a way to bear witness to our shared humanity? Sophie Killingley takes you through stories of art history and her own experiences of
grief to uncover the necessity of creativity as a sacred way to fully engage a trauma-filled world.
