Scarf Bag - Empatbelas 2025 - Kedah
Introducing Husna Zaki from Kedah!
What's the story behind your artwork?
“Mai Kedah!” is a cheerful artwork that invites everyone to come and see the beauty of Kedah. It shows iconic landmarks like Menara Jam Alor Setar, Menara Alor Setar, and the majestic Gunung Jerai. The golden paddy fields represent the hard work of Kedah people and why it’s called the “Rice Bowl of Malaysia.” The Rumah Toksu shows Kedah’s traditional charm, while the eagle with a straw hat brings out Langkawi’s famous and playful side. A bowl of thick and flavourful Laksa Kedah highlights the state’s delicious food. At the centre, I am riding a bicycle in ‘Baju Kedah Opah’ and kain batik, with an Oyen cat on my back. The oyen cat reflects how Kedah people are like oyen brave, confident and friendly. This artwork is a fun way to share Kedah’s culture, food, and kampung spirit.
Material: Como Crepe
Size: cloth size approximately about 56cm x 56cm
