Whisper
Whisper differentiates itself from other embroideries by the use of color. Overall, it is quite pale by using a few dark colors to embroider two rabbits and leaves. Still, the flurry texture of rabbits and the dryness of leaves are well illustrated by precious color use. A newly and recent trend for Cantonese embroidery is shown by this work, that is Cantonese embroidery tended to use existing painting from other painters as their design. In this way, time can be saved from designing and the possibility of being popular is higher. They seem this as a way to revitalize Cantonese embroidery. Basically, this work embroidered according to Fang Chuxiong's painting Whisper. (Guangzhou Daily, 2013) However, it is not a complete copy. It involves own interpretation and adjustment, e.g. the composition are different from the original work, so as to retain the characteristics of Cantonese embroidery.
