at Hill House, Helensborough, Greater Glasgow, Scotland
An exhibition of contemporary abstract stone sculpture by British sculptor Kate Thomson and Japanese sculptor Hironori Katagiri in the exquisite interiors and gardens of Mellerstain House designed by Robert Adam, and Charles Rennie McKintosh’s iconic Hill House in Glasgow.  The work of this married couple, who have been living and working in Japan for the last 20 years, shows a unique cultural synergy of complementary yet very individual approaches.  
While Kate Thomson explores sculpture as language and philosophy to create a tactile poetry of space, form and light in marble;  
Hironori Katagiri`s black granite abstract forms have a spirituality shining out from the inner essence of the material like the glint of a Japanese sword.
The two venues represent two of Scotland’s most famous architects, and provide ideal spaces to illustrate the Scottish and Japanese cultural and aesthetic contexts and influences on these two internationally renowned sculptors who’s stunning contemporary sculpture highlights how the architecture of both Robert Adam and Charles Rennie McKintosh retain their innovative beauty and are still relevant to the modern world.
