“Hanya Batik” is an immersive digital experience, narrated through the eyes of a batik artist with visuals by Arif Rafhan. The show transitions from traditional longhouse interiors and historical events, such as the establishment of the Malacca Sultanate, to modern Malaysia’s vibrant urban scenes and cultural celebrations. Prominent Malaysian figures narrate their contributions, symbolising the nation’s cultural continuity and progress.

Batik graphic assets are intricately used throughout the show, blending traditional and contemporary designs to celebrate Malaysia’s diverse and evolving culture.
