00:00Welcome to Mediane TV. Today I take you, dear viewers, to the discovery of Ablaziz Twil,

00:15master craftsman, stoker in Salé. In 1994, a contest of circumstances led Ablaziz Twil

00:23to embark on a career as a craftsman in stucco in Salé, a choice he never regretted

00:29as this profession filled him and allowed him to perpetuate an ancestral art.

00:34Today, at 55, this master craftsman sees with bitterness the scarcity of his peers

00:42and the disinterest of young generations.

00:45Today's young people do not have the will and the patience to learn, he explains.

00:49Over the centuries, stucco is an essential element of Moroccan architecture.

00:56This type of fabric combines hot and plaster to create unique mural works of art.

01:03I suggest you listen to him.

01:11I started my career as a craftsman in 1994 following a contest of circumstances.

01:17This choice, made after the suspension of my studies, turned out to be one of the best in my life.

01:23It is a profession that fulfills me and that I consider very honorable.

01:27The absence of traditional Moroccan stucco in a house is immediately felt.

01:32This material offers incomparable beauty and visual comfort,

01:37creating an atmosphere conducive to conviviality.

01:41Authentic decoration cannot do without this traditional touch.

01:47The stucco is used in Greece from the Archaic period to the 7th century BC

01:55as a fabric used to cover stone constructions.

01:58At the time, the technique was generally used to imitate architecture.

02:02The stucco is used to make embossments, to dress the columns of cannelures

02:06or to design chapiteaux or pilasters.

02:11The stucco is both a material and a decorative technique,

02:14whose use dates back to Antiquity.

02:17It is a hot or plaster-based fabric

02:19mixed with a finely ground load composed of marble powder, brick or sand.

02:26The most refined stuccos, those containing marble powder,

02:29have a white, sparkling and soft touch.

02:33For centuries, Moroccan stucco has sublimated the country's traditional architecture,

02:37adorning mosques, palaces and palaces with refined motifs.

02:41However, this ancestral art is now threatened with disappearance.

02:45The stucco, composed of hot and plaster,

02:47offers a unique identity to the Moroccan interior.

02:51Faced with the scarcity of stucco makers,

02:54Ablaziz Touheil calls for increased support from the state,

02:57notably by promoting this heritage on the media and social networks.

03:02As Moroccan architecture continues to inspire the world,

03:06the future of traditional stucco now rests on the transmission

03:10of its know-how to the next generation.

03:13I invite you to listen again to Ablaziz Touheil, the master craftsman.

03:25Stucco, a secular tradition, is found in the homes, mosques,

03:29riades and ancient monuments of Morocco.

03:32This art is passed down from generation to generation.

03:35Unfortunately, the number of artisans has decreased,

03:38and today's young people do not have the will and patience to learn,

03:41because it is a traditional industry that requires patience

03:45to develop and reach the rank of master.

03:48We need more support from the state,

03:51notably in terms of advertising,

03:53and especially on Moroccan channels and social media platforms.

03:59We want the state to help us in this area

04:02so that this craft does not disappear and continues for future generations.

04:15And finally, some music, directed by Oujda,

04:18who hosted this week the 13th edition of the nights of Samar

04:22organized on the occasion of the holy month of Ramadan.

04:26For the organizers, this event aims at the cultural animation of Ramadan nights,

04:30emphasizing the role of this kind of event

04:33in the preservation of national intangible heritage

04:36and to make this ancestral art known to the rising generations.

04:40They added that this cultural and spiritual manifestation

04:43also aims to strengthen exchanges and links

04:46between active groups and associations in the field of medir and samar

04:51at the level of the city of Oujda,

04:53in the context of the promotion of the essential pillar of local development.

05:51Thank you, dear viewers, for your loyalty.
