Stories of the materials used in making art are often as thought-provoking and illuminating as the objects themselves. From The Metropolitan Museum of Art, Immaterial examines the materials of art and what they can reveal about history and humanity. Each episode looks at a single material: paper, clay, jade, shells, and others, exploring the qualities and meanings that are often overlooked.

Fascinating, poetic, beautiful.
I’m really enjoying Camille’s poetic and political perspective on the symbolism and meaning that embody materials, and what it means for objects to be de-contextualised from their original locations and placed into the Met collection. I hope this series continues.
Really drawn in by the content, interviews, and sounds of this podcast. We haven’t had one drop in over a month, looking forward to new episodes and hope this isn’t going to fade away.
i was pulled in episode after episode by the sound design, and found myself learning so much, seeing so many things in new ways. this is a beautiful gift to anyone who is curious about the magic of the physical world and the beauty of the human imagination.
This is a great podcast! Instead of just dryly talking about the collection, this podcast examines the materials used in art making and the sometimes complicated history of those materials. It's also a beautifully sound designed podcast and a pleasure to listen to.
