Today, we held a talk about LIMAR, a devotion lecture series on the motifs and patterns of traditional limar, by our special guest Khairulanwar Rahmat, a cultural writer and researcher. It was a great discussion about how our culture was adorned long ago, which has since faded in this new era. It was our pleasure to host his talk here today at HARTA.
Many people know about batik and songket, but when asked about the most precious Malay fabric, limar, there is a big question mark. So what is limar?
Limar is a silk weft ikat that the Malays, the Thais and the Cambodians produced and were very good at it. But then, because of modernity and economic and social reforms, this difficult technique has died in Malaysia and is slowly dying out in our Southeast Asian countries.
So let us treasure this type of cloth by becoming more aware of it and learning more about it.
Welcome to our talk on Kain Limar by Kayrol Anwar @ Harta Space tomorrow.
We are excited to unveil the Devotion Exhibition by John Ang.
Join us in celebrating this spectacular showcase of rich cultural heritage and stunning textile artistry.
Coming Soon!

Princess Norah’s Beach, Tuba Island Langkawi (2016)
Princess Norah’s Beach is a secluded haven, a pristine sanctuary untouched by the outside world and largely inaccessible to all but a few. This idyllic stretch of white sand has remained unspoiled for centuries, its beauty preserved by the remote and uninhabited nature of Tuba Island, Langkawi. The island’s lack of electricity and drinking water has served as a natural barrier, keeping human presence at bay and allowing the beach to retain its untouched allure. As I capture the scene from a helicopter, my eyes are drawn to a lone boat anchored offshore. I imagine Its occupants enjoying the tranquility of the calm waters, perhaps lost in dreams of adventure and discovery.
I can’t help but feel a pang of longing as I watch from above, wishing I could join them in experiencing the serenity of this hidden gem. Princess Norah’s Beach is a reminder of the raw beauty and unspoiled wilderness that still exists in our world, waiting to be explored and appreciated by those fortunate enough to discover it.
MANGROVE RIVER, DESARU COAST, JOHOR
2016
The mangrove forest in Desaru Coast, Johor, stands as a pristine sanctuary teeming with biodiversity, offering a glimpse into the rich tapestry of coastal ecosystems. Situated along the picturesque Johor Straits, this vibrant mangrove expanse plays a crucial role in safeguarding the region’s ecological balance while providing a haven for countless species of flora and fauna. The proximity of the mangrove forest to the Johor Straits adds to its allure, offering breathtaking views of the shimmering waters and distant horizons.
Here, the ebb and flow of the tides create a dynamic environment, where mangrove ecosystems thrive in the interplay between land and sea. Beyond its scenic beauty, the mangrove forest in Desaru Coast serves as a vital buffer against coastal erosion and storm surges, protecting inland areas from the brunt of tropical storms and rising sea levels. However, despite its ecological importance, the mangrove forest faces threats from human activities such as pollution, habitat destruction, and unsustainable development such as land reclamation and sand dredging used for construction.
Gunung Berembun, Negeri Sembilan 2019.
Lenticular clouds are a rare sight to behold in the mountainous regions of Malaysia. However, during a trek near Gunung Berembun, Jelebu, Negeri Sembilan, i stumbled upon a truly remarkable sight-a stunning formation of lenticular clouds gracing the sky above.
It was early in the morning, and the air was still damp from the rain that had fallen the previous night. Perhaps it was the perfect combination of atmospheric conditions that gave rise to this breathtaking phenomenon.
As i gazed up at the sky, i couldn't help but marvel at the sight before me. The lenticular clouds, with their distinctive lenslike shape, hung suspended in the air like ethereal sculptures, casting a surreal aura over the landscape below.
It was a moment of pure serendipity, a rare convergence of nature's forces coming together to create something truly extraordinary. And as i stood there, witnessing the awe-inspiring spectacle unfold before my eyes, i was reminded once again of the boundless beauty and wonder that surround us, waiting to be discovered.

Aliya Maisarah
Garcinia atroviridis, or asam gelugur or asam keping, is a rainforest tree native to peninsular Malaysia and Sumatra. The artist’s aunt taught her the dying tradition of how to pick and dry the fruit. Aliya Maisarah aims to digitise these memories and fruits to preserve these traditions and keep them alive for future generations through her digital installation titled “Forgotten Tradition I and II”. The translucent surfaces reflect her vision, creating a kaleidoscopic spectacle. The interplay of light and fabric creates a seamless fusion of creativity, inviting viewers to engage with the installation on a profound level.
