Our reporter Sun Yi photographed some embroidery cultural and creative products designed and produced by Kadel. Kadel (middle) exchanges embroidery skills with the embroidery lady. Except for the signature, all the images in this version are taken by Dawuti Rexiati from Hami, Xinjiang, which is a must pass area on the ancient Silk Road, and are passed down with ancient Uyghur embroidery techniques. Uyghur women who are skilled in embroidery use silver needles and colored threads to embroider flowers, plants, flowing water, and mountains in nature into beautiful patterns. They cleverly decorate them around flower hats, collars, cuffs, or prominent areas on pillows and bedding to showcase their ingenuity and rich artistic imagination in wearing flowers and brocades. Kadel Reheman, a 50 year old villager from Qiaomai Zhuangzi Village, Taojiagong Town, Hami City, grew up in a family with such a tradition. Influenced by his mother and sister since childhood, Kadel has shown extraordinary embroidery talent. For the first time, the design of his independent Paper Cuttings was embroidered by his mother and bought by others. He was only 6 years old that year. In local traditional beliefs, embroidery is done by women. As the only "embroidery man" in the village, Kadel, who always holds embroidery needles, has been criticized and ridiculed by the villagers. However, his love for embroidery never regretted it, and Kadel often closed the door and secretly embroidered himself. In 2008, Uyghur embroidery declared by the Hami region was included in the second batch of national intangible cultural heritage representative projects. This gave Kadel great encouragement. The following year, at a folk art exhibition held at the Hami Cultural Center, Kadel's 10 embroidery works won recognition from local experts. When experts learned that this was the work of an "embroidered man," they were very surprised. Since then, more and more people have known about me, and the villagers have gradually accepted me. Gradually, more and more people are looking for Kadel to design patterns and buy embroidery. The country attaches great importance to the excavation, inheritance, and protection of excellent traditional cultures of various ethnic groups in Xinjiang. In 2015, the former Ministry of Culture and Ministry of Education organized the "China Intangible Cultural Heritage Inheritance Population Training and Training Program" and established the first traditional craftsmanship workstation in Hami, China. As a beneficiary, Kader was one of the first Xinjiang Hami embroidery training students at Guangzhou University. My eyes seem to have opened a door, showcasing the exquisite and unparalleled skills of the four famous Chinese embroiderers
