As many as 866,000 Australians are of Chinese origin, according to the country's 2011 national census. Last month, an exhibition titled Bridge of Memories that was hosted at Guangzhou-based Jinan University tried to explore the story of migrants of Chinese descent who have settled in Australia in the past half century. Videos of Chinese-origin migrants telling their stories were also displayed at that show.

Jason Wing, another of the three Australian artists featured at YibanYiban, says he is proud of his country's multicultural societies.

"Australia is amazing because of our multicultural community. Cultures from around the world make Australia what it is," Wing says.

Dominic Trindade, the Australian Consul-General in Guangzhou, says that the consulate-general is supportive of such people-to-people exchanges between China and Australia. "This exhibition is part of a long-running cultural exchange between Australia and China," he says.
