A history of Venus in Art, the artist who lives on a boat and Yul Scarf - a podcast by ABC Radio

The goddess of love has reigned supreme through Western art, but her roots are darker, more ancient and shape-shifting than you'd expect.
Historian and TV presenter Prof Bettany Hughes joins Daniel to tell the surprising history of Venus/Aphrodite.
Plus, a seascape painter who lives on a yacht, and step into the studio of Yul Scarf, who uses ceramics, old bricks and the revived tech of QR codes, to explore questions of colonialism.
