batikTEKTURA exhibits 'MOK POD' structure at the Tukang Design and Craft Festival 2022
In early 2022, batikTEKTURA and Gharib (led by Zul Fadzly Mohd Salleh, a traditional Malay structure specialist) set out to collaborate on a project for Tukang, the first craftsmanship project in Selangor, organized by Tourism Selangor. In July, their proposal was announced as one of the 6 main winners for the Tukang project and the team received a grant from Tourism Selangor to construct and realise their visions to reality.
The MOK POD structure is a feminine-masculine juxtaposition of an idea, which combines a timber structure with batik skins. MOK refers to the batik skin draped all over the structure while POD refers to the sturdy wooden structure that can be used as a shelter, playhouse, work area etc. The POD structure is based on traditional Malay house architecture which uses tanggam, a traditional technique in which grooves are cut into the wood. In contrast to a normal Malay house structure where the walls are usually also made from wood, this structure uses batik fabric which softens its rough and hardy exterior look.
This stunning structure was exhibited at the Tukang Design and Craft Festival 2022 at Gallery Shah Alam on 22-27 November 2022.
