Making a Splash Trailer

Welcome to Making a Splash - the arts and culture podcast that celebrates swimming and the sea. I’m your host Amber Butchart, a dress historian and keen but incredibly unaccomplished sea swimmer. 

The sea has always been a source of inspiration for me, from writing books about the maritime origins of our clothing, to researching the link between stripes and the sea. So I wanted to find out how the ocean inspires other people too. 

I’ll be talking to circus performers, curators, designers, historians, scientists, and writers, about how the sea inspires their work, and they’ll share their stories of swimming and open water, including how it impacts their mind and body. 

So whether you love to swim or you’re a thalassophile who’s never so much as dipped a toe in the ocean, this is the podcast for you.
