Miao Embroidery

One of the characters of the Miao embroidery is that its color is rich and sprightly which makes people feel bright, clear and passionate. Red and green are main colors in the Miao embroidery and they are supplemented by other colors. The designs are dense which makes the colors more gorgeous, rich and splendid. Another character is that the shapes and lines are exaggerated and vivid. Figures of the Miao embroidery come from daily life, but they don't simply reflect life. It is on the basis of careful observation and experience by the Miao women to images of flowers, birds, worms, and fish. Through artistic abstraction, it is bravely exaggerated and deformed which expresses the aesthetic feeling and ideal of the creators. For example, the fish with round head, fat body, small mouth and big eyes is very vivid and lovely; the third character is that the shapes are symmetric and harmonious, and the patterns are natural. Dragon, phoenix, flower, grass, worm, fish, etc should all be symmetrically arranged, especially in stitching embroidery; the forth character is that different patterns of images are put together freely, which is full of temperament and interest. The Miao embroidery is not bound by natural images, time and space, and it pays much attention to the expression of temperament and interest. Every picture is poured out completely by creators' imagination and affection. Blossom of peach, plum and chrysanthemum can exist together and animals in the world can live together, which is full of heavy local color and strong artistic appeal. In additional to embroidery, the wax printing of the Miaos is also very famous and enjoys good fame worldwide.
