The embroidery of “Marash” is a significant branch of our national cultural heritage. It represents a unique style of handicraft characterized by its intricate techniques. The works of “Marash” cannot be merely replicated by observation; a specific method is involved in their creation. This art form is more than just embroidery; it tells a deep story about the city of Marash and the fate of its people. As you create each decorative design, it feels as though you are transported back to those historical times.
I am thankful for the chance to learn this embroidery style at the “Oghak” NGO, and I am delighted to contribute to preserving and continuing this precious heritage. It is my responsibility to transmit this important embroidery tradition to the younger generation and to inspire them to love, learn, preserve, and promote it as well.
