Compassion and suspended jumpers

STORY

A Christmas jumper’s alternative life. Once loved and worn over and over, yet in another life, discarded on a beach in Lesbos.

DISCUSSION

When and why do we feel compassion? How should we react to tragedy around us? And what does that teach us about our everyday lives?

Join us on this journey of trying to understand this concept a little more and maybe also stop with us a second to see the sadness that a child-size Christmas jumper was once witness to.

INSPIRATION

This episode’s recommendation is Tania Bruguera’s Hyundai Commission at the Tate.

The exhibition we mention in the show is by a British artist whose details can be found here.
