How have humans connected with the divine across thousands of years of history?
In short: Curator Jill Cook and John Studzinski lead a tour through the Living with gods exhibition. This video explores the objects and stories that define how people have engaged with worlds beyond our own throughout human history.
The exhibition, titled Living with gods: peoples, places and worlds beyond, examines the enduring human impulse to seek meaning and connection with the divine. It highlights a diverse range of objects, each carrying unique narratives about belief and the human experience.
Running from 2 November 2017 to 8 April 2018 at The British Museum, the exhibition was supported by the Genesis Foundation and accompanied a BBC Radio 4 series hosted by Neil MacGregor.
