Chaozhou international embroidery art biennial opens

Artists from abroad and home spoke on the topic of Embroidery and Life Today. Fashion designer and curator Yang Beibei shared her experience of using embroidery into designing as well as her inspiration from the traditional Chinese embroidery. Now, Chao embroidery, with Su embroidery, Shu embroidery and Xiang embroidery, has been listed in the National intangible cultural heritage project in China. It is hoped that this Biennial could pave the way for traditional skills like embroidery entering contemporary life and provide a platform to promote exchanges and cooperation between the embroidery industry at home and abroad. The Biennale will last until January 5, 2019.
