Guests' signature and message

When Mr. Zhong Mantian, a senior craftsman and artist of China fashion research and design center, came to see the exhibition, Ms. Tan Li asked Mr. Zhong Mantian for advice: "I found that there are traces of mending, changing, renovating and restructuring in some of the Qing Dynasty's clothing collections. Can they be integrated into the ancient family style theme of" diligence and frugality " Mr. Zhong man Tian highly appreciates this view. This is also the idea in the Tao Te Ching that "if you know me, you will be more valuable. This is because sages are generally dressed in ordinary clothes, but they have rich treasures and ways of doing things. In addition, the Buddhist idea of cherishing clothes and cloth embodies the viewpoint of saving and cherishing things. This is not only a simple sewing and continuation, but also a new aesthetic concept. This is the object that keeps the body temperature of the family members and reflects the continuation of the feelings between family members. Although people are generally not short of material resources at present, it is a virtue of the Chinese nation to save clothes and things. Moreover, the newly assembled and reorganized clothes have the past temperature of family members.

Xiao Fan, a sophomore in Beijing Institute of fashion, came to watch the exhibition one day before returning home from vacation. When he saw that there were various patterns of lions rolling embroidered balls among the clothing collections on display, he was excited. With the consent of Ms. Tan Li, she carefully took photos and kept it. She also mentioned that he was about to do his graduation thesis, and talked about the clothes design he needed. Ms. Tan Li suggested that he design them according to the implication of the patterns and the different generations of family members. Xiao Fan excitedly said, "I haven't thought about it yet."

These cultural relics, which have experienced many vicissitudes, not only record a series of stories directly reaching the hearts of the people, but also the best witness of the inheritance of Chinese excellent traditional culture and family tradition.

They teach their children to study hard and become famous when they grow up. They are textbooks with no words and convey cultural information through pictures With the growth of children. The aesthetic value and spiritual value contained in these fabrics and embroideries may be more real and touching than those fictional opera stories, because they are more beautiful and attractive because they are visible, touchable, perceptible and knowable. "


Non legacy cultural creation


"Zhou Li" records that the tiger was painted on the gate at a very early time, expecting it to stand guard and guard against disasters and bring good luck. The tiger has the ability to frighten the evil spirits, and has been listed as the third in the zodiac. Xinchou's "year of the ox" is about to pass, and renyin's "year of the tiger" is coming.

Tiger modeling has been accompanied by the development and growth of the Chinese nation for thousands of years. The artistic modeling of tiger is colorful, and various folk artistic modeling of tiger is the wealth of the Chinese nation.
