This will be the first opportunity to see the remarkable work of American artist Dana Westring in the UK.  

In his show - Thin Places: Tirthas - Dana’s beautiful, contemplative watercolours and drawings will be presented by the Garden Museum in association with VH Projects.

Embodying a coalescence of the old Grand Tour tradition, a profound understanding of architecture and the discipline of architectural drawing, combined with the artist’s application of beautiful meditative lines and diffused color, this group of landscapes is principally the result of Dana’s extensive annual travel in Southeast Asia, and of his artistic practice and research amongst the sacred architecture of the Hindu temples and other Indian structures.  

To translate the Hindu word, Tirtha means a place of pilgrimage, and also the cultivation of truth, knowledge and spirituality – literally a thin place, a higher plain.
