A site-specific installation for the Ramadan Tent Project and Bradford 2025. Zahra’s works are also on display at Grosvenor Gallery.

A new commission by Ramadan Tent Project and Bradford 2025 has been unveiled in Bradford City Centre, as the second edition of Ramadan Pavilion.

Designed by Zarah Hussain and Bradford-based Architectural Designer Fatima Mejbil, Infinite Light is a striking double-archway structure drawing on diverse architectural traditions worldwide. A site-specific structure, the Pavilion responding to the Ramadan Festival 2025 theme of ‘Connection’ has been designed to appeal to all communities in Bradford.

The lower arch is inspired by the elegant colonnaded courtyards often seen in sacred and civic spaces, such as those surrounding the holy sanctuary in Mecca, built in the 16th century. The higher arch is influenced by Venetian Gothic architecture, known for its pointed and ornate forms, as seen in Bradford’s City Hall, completed in the 1870s.
