00:00¡Susanne!
00:30We are in Tashkent at the gallery of Madinah Kasembaeva, one of Uzbekistan's most celebrated Susanne artists.
00:43Susanne embroidery is a unique part of the traditional culture of Uzbekistan.
00:48Since ancient times, embroidered panels have been present in every home.
01:00You can see and say, it's Bukhara or Tashkent or Samarkand.
01:05Silk threads that once arrived in this land via this silk road are a fundamental element of this art.
01:12Madinah has mastered various Susanne techniques and has brought new life to the Tashkent style of Susanne,
01:19which had been forgotten for 200 years.
01:23What do these symbols mean?
01:24It takes months and sometimes years to create a single piece.
01:46I've never held any hook, any silver thread, and it's very scary.
01:51Ura!
01:53It's done!
01:55Uzbek Susanne is now gaining in popularity across the globe.
02:00Madinah showcases her works at prestigious international exhibitions
02:04and teaches students at her school in Tashkent.
02:07My mission is to deliver this art to the next generation.
02:11Uzbekistan is carving out a strategic role in the global textile industry with its fabrics
02:22at the heart of the modern silk road, reaching markets worldwide.
02:26Uztex Group stands as one of the country's top textile companies,
02:30showcasing the full cotton supply chain from farming to finished products.
02:35The beauty of our production is to consider the rotation of printing and printing
02:41on all types of fabrics.
02:43We can only use only 12 colors.
02:46Quality control is paramount at every stage of production.
02:51What are you testing here?
02:53We test the fabric on peeling-ability,
02:56that is, the form of cutters on clothes after wearing,
02:59according to the American and European standards.
03:02Uztex became the first company in Central Asia
03:05to earn the prestigious Worldwide Responsible Accredited Production Certification,
03:09confirming its adherence to international labor standards.
03:14Its experts are growing.
03:16By using modern technologies, we produce a high-quality product,
03:20which is valued by the ecological and safety.
03:2390% of our products we export,
03:26starting from Europe and ending from China.
03:29This is the modern silver path.
03:32The final destination of my Silk Road journey is also in Tashkent.
03:43I meet the modern designer, Женя Kim.
03:45She has built an international brand and skillfully blends history with modernity,
03:50bringing Uzbekistan's traditions to the global stage.
03:54And Suzane here plays an important role.
03:58The first manufacturers, with whom I met in Uzbekistan,
04:01were the designers.
04:03When they met me with the process of creating these designs,
04:05for me it was a new approach to creating clothing.
04:10It was a very meditative, slow and healing.
04:14It was a very exciting project.
04:15She is a very exciting product.
04:16She brings various Uzbekistan's crafts onto the modern fashion stage.
04:21This robe were created in various cities.
04:25In Tashkent they were made with trafairet and painted fabric.
04:29They were made in Nurete.
04:31In Nurete they were made in Nurete.
04:33They were made in handia in handia.
04:35So, a 100% couture is made.
04:37Yes, couture for 100%.
04:40Uzbekistan's textile traditions are experiencing a revival, paving the way for new opportunities
04:49and marking a significant chapter in the evolving narrative of the modern Silk Road.
