Abstract

Under the influence of contemporary global efforts in conserving intangible cultural heritage, the embroidery art of Khorchin has been endowed with renewed significance, content, and forms. This study employs the anthropology of art perspective to situate the art of Khorchin embroidery within a new historical context. Employing ethnographic methods, it interprets cultural meanings through the four forms of artistic heritage—local, ethnic, aesthetic, and artisanal—thus presenting the unique aesthetic experiences of Khorchin embroidery within specific temporal, spatial, and cultural contexts. This study enriches the research of Chinese artistic heritage with a specific case.
