Jaali of Sidhi Sayed Mosque in Batik by Anwar Husen Khatri

This exquisite Batik artwork by Anwar Husen Khatri masterfully captures the intricate beauty of the famous jaali (lattice screen) from the Sidi Saiyyed Mosque in Ahmedabad, Gujarat. The jaali, an architectural marvel of Indo-Islamic artistry, is celebrated for its delicate stone latticework, which is here reimagined in fabric through the meticulous wax-resist technique. The central motif showcases the iconic "Tree of Life" design, where interwoven branches create a mesmerizing network of organic forms, rendered in golden yellow against a deep black background. A small yet vibrant green palm tree emerges from the composition, symbolizing vitality and spirituality. Surrounding the central artwork is a rich red border adorned with traditional patterns, lending depth and framing the intricate design within a regal embrace. The use of deep indigo as the backdrop enhances the sense of mystery and reverence associated with the original mosque’s windows, which allow light to filter through in ethereal patterns. The fine crackling texture, characteristic of Batik, further enriches the piece, adding a timeless and aged aesthetic that mirrors the historic grandeur of the Sidi Saiyyed jaali. This textile masterpiece is more than just an artistic representation; it is a tribute to Gujarat’s cultural heritage, blending architectural elegance with the fluidity of textile art. Anwar Husen Khatri’s work stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of craftsmanship, bridging tradition and contemporary artistic expression through this magnificent Batik.
