Meridians are an integral part of traditional Chinese Medicine. The word also describes the connecting points of equal longitude that reflects our aim in establishing an on going connection with Welsh and China artists.
The Meridian exhibition will demonstrate the vibrant and dynamic and artistic, contemporary cultural landscape of Chang-an Xi’an which was the ancient capital of China and has been renowned as a city of outstanding artistic achievement for over five thousand years.
