The Inheritance and Innovation of Shu Embroidery Technique and Culture in the New Era

Abstract

Shu embroidery is a type of embroidery art originating from the western Sichuan plain, renowned for its exquisite appearance. The cultural value of Shu embroidery runs deep, and it has taken on new significance in modern times. In ancient times, Shu embroidery experienced a period of peak development; however, under the impact of modern society, the inheritance and future development of Shu embroidery also face some difficulties and challenges, such as monotonous styles, slow updates, a small number of people inheriting the skills, the lack of a complete industrial chain, small scale, and the absence of representative brands. This article delves into the cultural value behind Shu embroidery while also proposing solutions to these issues, including accelerating research and development, popularizing knowledge about Shu embroidery, increasing promotional efforts, and cultivating relevant technical talent.
