at 19:00 on august 19, wenzhoudaily invited ms. shi chengquan, the inheritor of ou embroidery - one of chinese national intangible heritage, to the "meeting·wuma" livestreaming studio. "meeting·wuma" is located on wuma street in wenzhou urban district, partnering with our foreign anchor brett from the south africa, to promote the beauty of ou embroidery to the whole world via the column "young pengyou in wenzhou."
as ms. shi chengquan introduced, she was born in an ou embroidery family and is the fourth-generation heiress of shi's ou embroidery craft. she is also the representative inheritor of ou embroidery, the chinese national intangible heritage project. during the livestreaming, ms. shi chengquan displayed her double-sided ou embroidered works, "the mightiness of king," "the leaping fish," etc.
the leaping fish
ms. shi chengquan said "the mightiness of king," which especially takes the lion as the theme, is the first and only"double-sided, different-color, different-pattern” embroidery work in the history of ou embroidery. this work took 3 years to design and complete, overcoming countless technical problems in embroidery such as double-sided layout, different-color application, and different-pattern setting. it presented both a lion’s awe-inspiring power in static pose and its domineering momentum in dynamic move on a single canvas. looking at these masterpieces created by ms. shi chengquan, our foreign anchor brett was so amazed.
it is reported that in addition to be launched through wenzhou’s first international official account "young pengyou in wenzhou", this live video was also posted on the bilingual media platforms (in chinese and english), such as in zhejiang, wenzhoudaily, overseas releases, european chinese headlines and so on, and was promoted to the whole world.
