| In Wuhan, there has been a resurgence of interest in the craft, thanks to the efforts of some local artists. Even young foreigners are getting involved. (CNTV) |
Yang Xiaoting, Han Embroidery artist, said, "Since we established a Han Embroidery center here in Tan Hua Lin, the oldest culture street in Wuhan, we have found that there are more and more foreign visitors. Every time I see their surprised expressions when they see our works, I feel really proud. Soon some of the visitors expressed their wishes to learn this special skill."
Although there are some language obstacles between the artists and foreign students, Ms. Yang says they are still able to communicate. She says foreigners are often attracted to the meanings behind Chinese paintings, such as the symbolism of the dragon and the phoenix.
Yang Xiaoting said, "Su Embroidery is already internationally known. It is fine, smooth and elegant, while our Han Embroidery is becoming appreciated by more and more people. Influenced by Chu culture, Han Embroidery is a luxury, and has a strong effect on decoration. It also used to appear in costumes in some operas. Its bright and colorful style is becoming more accepted by modern people."
