2011 New Year of the Rabbit stamps
Based on the Chinese Zodiac calendar, 2011 will be the Year of the Rabbit. Many countries annually honor the animal corresponding with the Lunar Chinese New Year on postage stamps. At the end of 2010, The Chunghwa Post (Taiwan / Republic of China) issued a “New Year’s Greeting Postage Stamps” set featuring cute rabbits.
“...The designs find inspiration in modern art styles, such as action painting and pop art. The motif rabbits are depicted using black silhouettes that are adorned with orange and purple paint splatters, which create lively compositions. The backgrounds, which are yellow with random red splatters, cleverly make use of traditional Chinese ink-wash effects. The bright colors symbolize joy and convey high expectations about the Year of the Rabbit...”
马年邮票的设计者是来自 Up Inc. 数字设计公司的青年设计师及本地的画家，总共有六人，其中三人是华裔，分别是陈晓岚、李耀彬和胡道言。设计采用极富中国民间色彩的剪纸窗花形式，主体为剪纸马，采用大红色特制闪光油墨印刷，配合背景的桃花和青竹，非常有年节气氛。一元二毛五分的邮票还配以四周的八角形窗框，更像是一幅剪纸窗花贴在窗户上。
