German Chancellor Angela Merkel is making her eighth visit to China this week. As with political and economic points of view, there are many cultural differences between the two nations. Chinese-born artist Yang Liu moved to Germany at the age of 14. Drawing on her experience, she has created a series of minimalist infographics to highlight how people see their world from a Chinese versus German perspective in her piece ‘East Meets West’. The blue side represents a German point of view, the red represents Chinese.
