It demonstrates the cultural links between China and Bulgaria through the Silk Road. The show displaying 58 artworks by 12 artists from presented in a non-linear way tells the story of a global development of ceramics as art from objects positioned on the wall, from small objects to monumental artworks.

As a passageway in the space, the exhibition shown in Troyan in the space of National Exhibition of Art Crafts and Arts center – “Oreshak” takes the shape of a bridge, which remain to say that we belong to each other with the bridge of traces, all of us, people from different families, different suburbs, different communities, sex and ages, distinctive origins, nationalities and countries.
