RAGI : VISUAL RHYTHMS OF MALAY TENUN
A Textile Collection by Khairulanwar Rahmat

HARTA unveils RAGI – Visual Rhythm of Malay Tenun, from the collection of Khairulanwar Rahmat. On view from 4 to 30 April 2026, the exhibition unfolds through a progressive narrative of texture, technique and tradition, culminating in the Songket – revered as the "Queen of Malay Textiles"- as the exhibition’s final and most illustrious highlight. Hand-woven with gold and silver threads, these prestigious works transform geometric "ragi" into canvases for nature-inspired motifs, demonstrating a weaver’s keen observation of the world around them.

4th April - 30th April 2026
10am - 5pm at HARTA (closed on Mondays)
