GATEWAY TO DEVOTION

This series of three limited-edition tapestries—Safarli, Noora, and Hawiya (edition of 10 each)—pays homage to the Hajj Terminal’s iconic architecture, from its monumental pillars to its textile canopies. Their vertical compositions recall the gracious lines of prayer mats and mihrabs, evoking a sense of movement between the earthly and the celestial. Aligned with the Jeddah Islamic Biennale's theme, ‘And All That is in Between’, the works reflect on the spiritual and architectural dialogue that defines this unique space.
