Welcome to Ricefield, the hub for Chinese creativity in Scotland

Ricefield is the hub for Chinese arts and culture in Scotland. It is the Glasgow meeting point for Chinese artists, musicians and designers. Within our Ricefield we provide the soil to nourish innovation within an intercultural environment where the best of China and Scotland come together.

Our aim is to nurture Chinese arts and culture within the Chinese community in Scotland, helping our members share their common heritage. Ricefield is also dedicated to share this great tradition with all the people of Scotland and to enrich the cultural life of our nation.

Residence among the flowers

Breeze from South West China

by Xiang Silou

Xiang Silou is a professor at the Fine Arts Institute of Sichuan Normal University, Chengdu and a recipient of many printing prizes in China.

Most of Xiang's work represents the genuine affection of Tibetan people, the lovely nature and timeless beauty of South West China. The surfaces of his woodblock prints are delicate and expressive and display an intensely Eastern sensibility. His landscapes appear to breath the spirit of traditional Chinese brush painting, using multiple strokes to depict movement and image.
