Rugged Past, Radiant Present on display at the Xidan Joy City Shopping Mall in Beijing, China.

In one of the absolute highlights of my art career so far, my image, “Rugged Past, Radiant Present,” an aerial image of County Clare’s Corcomroe Abbey in the Burren was showcased in an exhibition in Beijing, China, September 19-October 10, 2023, curated by the Neal Gallery.

This exhibition took place in the luxurious 13-floor Xidan Joy City Shopping Mall.

The Mall’s website describes it this way:

“Since December 28, 2007, Xidan Joy City, a city of joy, has brought vigour and influence to the Xidan business area by providing a superior shopping environment and experiential consumption concept.

It is a 13-floor grand shopping mall with different themes. With the brand concept of “young, fashion, trend, and taste”, it has attracted more than 300 international and domestic pioneer brands from 21 countries.

Various trendy food and “online-famous” shops there also attract a large number of young shoppers.”
