THE POSITION OF MARAŞ EMBROIDERY TECHNIQUES WITHIN THE CONTEXT OF CITY-NAMED EMBROIDERIES IN GLOBAL TEXTILE LITERATURE

Centers that have contributed named techniques to global embroidery literature, such as Assisi (Italy), Hardanger (Norway), or Lucknow Chikan (India), are generally recognized for a single unique technical discipline, acquiring a monolithic craft identity. Contrarily to this universal tendency, the embroidery tradition of Kahramanmaraş represents an exceptional global case in world craft history by consolidating three distinct fundamental embroidery systems—Maras Needle, Maras Work, and Maras Filigree—which are ontologically contradictory in structure, application, and material regime under the same local identity. This study aims to comparatively analyze this heritage with models on the global craft map through the concept of the "Structural Triad" and to reveal the region's position as a craft authority with its theoretical dimensions. The research is based on the primary outputs of the Artistic Application Project (SAUP) titled "Embroideries Living with Their Names" conducted by the author. While preliminary findings were presented as a paper at the 3rd International Congress on Social and Human Sciences in Gaziantep in May 2026, this article expands those data by deepening them through global literature comparisons, the conceptualization of "bodily algorithms," and technical decodings. Structured within a qualitative research design, the study derives its methodological basis from "Comparative Literature Analysis" and "Technical Documentation" approaches. The findings demonstrate that the structural differences between the interlaced surface construction of Maras Needle, the subtractive texture composition of Maras Filigree, and the volumetric wrapping structure of Maras Work are actually governed by a common discipline of axial symmetry and mathematical rhythm. Consequently, Kahramanmaraş is positioned in global embroidery literature as a strategic "Technical Specialization Center" that successfully maintains three different structural systems under a single local identity. This structural definition certifies that traditional craft knowledge offers an interdisciplinary reference matrix for digital design and parametric modeling processes.
