Answer:

There is no fundamental difference between Eastern and Western artists, aside from the cultural context in which they were raised. No matter where an artist comes from, they inevitably draw on their cultural background when they make their work, so it is not uncommon for Eastern artists to make explicit or implicit reference to local traditions of spirituality, craft, history, etc. while Western artists are more likely to draw on their own historical equivalents.

For instance, consider the above sculpture by Thai artist Kamin Lertchaiprasert, in which we see a Buddha made entirely from recycled Thai bank notes. The Buddha is a symbol of purity, and Buddhism is a central feature of Thai society. Money, on the other hand, is universally viewed as something dirty or impure, and so this sculpture suggests that the institutions of Buddhism and/or Thai society in general have been corrupted by the influence of money.

Now consider the following artwork by British artist Adrian Firth, in which the artist made a portrait of former prime minister Gordon Brown out of thousands of pence, in order to convey (once again) the corrupting influence of money upon British society.

Although both artists draw upon local cultural references for their subject matter, they are both speaking the same language of contemporary art. In conclusion, I would argue that there is no fundamental difference between Eastern and Western artists. Contemporary art has become a global phenomenon, but its particular expressions are shaped by the cultural contexts from which it emerges.
