The 6th Beijing International Art Biennale 2015
Getting on the bus.
Getting on the bus.

We were collected in groups, according to what time of day we arrived. Mine, I assumed, was the afternoon group. We got on this luxurious bus and were instantly given bottles of water and told our schedule for the 5 days. The traffic meant that a half hour journey to Beijing took about an hour or more. There were only about 13 artists on this bus. We all called home on our mobiles! It was strange to realise that my husband was talking at 9am UK time - China is 7 hours ahead.
