Two exhibitions which compliment each other perfectly at the Royal Geographical Society – work by the sculptor Paul Vanstone and works on paper by Natasha Kumar. Vanstone’s sculture is quite cool and classical and makes the best of the texture and fibre of the stone. Paul has spent time in Italy and in India, which shows in his work and was an assistant to Anish Kapoor. His work has a classical timeless quality.

"The many great gardens of the world, of literature and poetry, of painting and music, of religion and architecture, all make the point as clear as possible: The soul cannot thrive in the absence of a garden. If you don't want paradise, you are not human; and if you are not human, you don't have a soul."
(Thomas Moore)

The greatest interest is often where these different worlds overlap and collide - that is when something imaginative often occurs that pushes us all forward to another place
