A cultural stroll through the French Caribbean island of Martinique

This week we're taking our cameras over 6,000 km from Paris, to the French Caribbean island of Martinique. Visual artist Valérie John opens the doors of her "studio-artwork" in La Trinité, where indigo lies at the heart of everything she does. Far more than just a colour, it's a way of connecting with memory, identity and cultural heritage. "My work is a factory for producing creolisation," she tells us.
