Big and simple
This concept is used in the application of "giant objects" in the stage design, stage installations, and visual presentations in the play, especially the illustrations of the 123 white embroidered portraits in the original book, which are typical characteristics of Ming Dynasty printmaking, and have become aesthetic elements throughout the overall situation, presenting a shocking stage effect, and the overall style is both restrained and ingenious.
