THE ART OF JAPANESE LIFE | BBC Four

Assistant Producer

A three-part BBC Four series in which art historian Dr James Fox explores the deep connections between Japanese art, culture and everyday life. Each episode takes a different lens; Nature, Cities, and Home. Tracing how Japan's landscapes, great urban centres, and domestic spaces have shaped its artistic identity across the centuries. From the Shinto reverence for the natural world to the minimalism of the Japanese home and the cultural flowering of Kyoto, Edo and Tokyo, the series is a richly observed and visually elegant portrait of a civilisation whose art is inseparable from the way it lives.
