【转发分享】East Meets West: An Infographic Portrait by Yang Liu
The artist and visual designer Yang Liu was born in China and lives in Germany since she was 14. By growing up in two very different places with very different traditions she was able to experience the differences between the two cultures first-hand.
Drawing from her own experience Yang Liu created minimalistic visualizations using simple symbols and shapes to convey just how different the two cultures are. The blue side represents Germany (or western culture) and the red side China (or eastern culture):
Lifestyle: Independent vs. dependent
Attitude towards punctuality
At a party
Ideal of beauty
Elderly in day to day life
The boss
Noise level inside a restaurant
Problem-solving approach
Size of the individual's ego
Perception: How Germans and the Chinese see one another
