What This Module is About

Geographically, the Philippines belongs to the East, its arts and culture has been
heavily influenced by the West owing to 333 years of Spanish rule and 45 years of American
domination. Music, dances, and arts in the highland and lowland hamlets where indigenous
culture continues to thrive has strong Asian elements. Spanish and American influences are
highly evident in the arts of the urban areas.
A system to classify Philippines' music, dances and arts are geographic or ethno-
linguistic approach: for example, traditional Tagalog music, which is somewhat more Hispanic
in flavor, differs from Ifugao music and Islam influenced Maranao kulintang music. In
indigenous music, various kinds of instruments are made of bronze, bamboo, or wood. These
include gongs of various kinds of size and shapes, drums, flutes, zithers, lutes, clappers, and
buzzers.
Local genres in Mindanao include epics relating genealogies and exploits of heroes
and gods; work songs related to planting, harvesting, fishing; ritual songs to drive away evil
spirits or to invoke blessings from the good spirits; some are paintings to celebrate festive
occasions particularly marriage, birth, victory at war, or the settling of tribal disputes; mourning
rituals for the dead. It is this type of music and arts (painting) that is still practiced today by the
indigenous groups in Mindanao.
Good day students! let us now discover what local materials in Mindanao are potential
mediums and what are the possible art works, As you have explored in the previous modules,
artists have their own way of expressing art using different kinds of mediums/ materials and manner
by which materials are processed and transformed. In appreciating art paintings in Mindanao,
whether of its creativity and or of its efficient functions, we need our senses. Thus, on the process
of giving attention to it, we understand or make sense of a work of art.

What Is It
ARTS AND CRAFT OF MINDANAO
Mindanao, referred to as “THE

LAND OF PROMISE”, is the second
largest and southernmost island in the
Philippine Archipelago. Mindanao also
has the largest concentration of ethno-
linguistic groups and culturally diverse
island. These groups are mostly Muslims
from the Badjao, Iranun, Jama Mapun,
Kalagan, Kalibugan, Manobo,
Maguindanao, Sama Bangingi, Sama
Pangutaran, Samal, Sangil, Tausug, and
Yakan groups. Other groups are the
Lumads, or those who have maintained
their indigenous beliefs and traditions https://bit.ly/3mMr0lx
instead of converting to Islam or Christianity. Before Islam came to the Philippines, early
Filipinos worshipped believe that plants and inanimate objects are home to ancestral spirits.
They also believed that natural phenomena are caused by gods. These indigenous
beliefs system is called animism. The conversation of the natives and the arrival of Muslim
traders and merchants resulted in new forms of artistic impressions. This fusion of beliefs
created a unique blend of spirituality and creativity.
ATTIRE, TEXTILES, AND TAPESTRIES
The Bilaan or B’laan is an ethnolinguistic

group that inhabit some parts of South Cotabato,
North Cotabato, and Davao del Sur. B’laan is a
combination of two words, “bila” which means
“house” and “an” which means people. They are
known for embroidery, brass ornaments and
beadwork that are integrated in their traditional
clothing. The women wear heavy brass belts with
numerous tiny bells that hang around their
waistline. They also cut mother-of-pearl into small
shapes that look like sequins called takmun.
Ikat is a process of dyeing the fabric where https://bit.ly/3oPm4Oo

the yarns are tightly wrapped with the strings and dyed before weaving. The textiles usually
contain three colors: shades of black or browns, red or ochre (darker shade of orange), and
ecru (the color of undyed abaca).

lOMoARcPSD|12455257
The Bagobos are the group of people that live in Davao.

According to anthropologists, the name of this ethnolinguistic group
comes from the words “bago” means “new” and “obo” means
“growth”. This is because they are believed to have come from the
mixture of the native population with the Hindu migrants that
entered Mindanao during the Sri Vijayan and Majapahit Empires.
They make these clothes from a special textile

woven from abaca fibers called T’nalak. The men wear
t’nalak shorts, an undershirt, and a T’nalak coat. The Bagani or hero
wear blood-red clothes and a head-kerchief. The women wear
wrap-around t’nalak skirt and blouses are adorned with floral
pattern.
https://bit.ly/381c0ff
The T’boli who live in and around Lake Sebu,
South Cotabato are famous for their complicated beadwork,
wonderful woven fabrics, and beautiful brass ornaments.
Tboli weavers believe that their gods and ancestors visit them
in their dreams to teach them the designs and patterns that
they have to weave. The most famous T’boli dream weaver is
Lang Dulay who received the National Living Treasures –
Gawad Manlilihikha ng Bayan awarded by the National
Commission for Culture and the Arts or NCCA. Men are not
allowed to touch the materials used in the weaving process.
They believe that if they break the rules, the fiber will snap
and the designed will be ruined. T’nalak production is a
painstaking process that requires patience, a lot of creativity,
good memory, and a range of skills learned from a young age
https://bit.ly/381c0ff by the weavers.
Maranao means “People of the Lake” referring to the people who occupy the lands
surrounding Lake Lanao Maranao. The Maranaos are known for their Malong. The Malong is
a traditional Filipino tube skirt that is made of hand woven or machine made multi colored
cotton cloth. Women wear it as a skirt, a dress, or a gown. Depending on how its folded, it can
also be used as hammock, a basket, a sleeping bag, a bathrobe, or a baby carriage. The
Malong is important part of Maranao life. A new born is wrapped in it and, as he or she grows,
it becomes a part of his or her daily life as clothing and as material for everyday use. When a
person dies, he or she is once again wrapped in a malong. A traditional dance called Kapa
Malong Malong or Sambisa Malong, demonstrates the various ways of wearing a malong and
its uses. Yakan Basilan is the home to the Yakans. They are popular for their skills in weaving.
They weave very intricate designs in their textiles, which they use for their clothes and other
accessories.

lOMoARcPSD|12455257
Yakan hand-gloomed fabrics are known for their

use of bold colors and geometric patterns. The
Seputangan is a square cloth used by the Yakan women
as a head cover or as a belt. The Badjulapi is a tight
blouse with longsleeves. It is ornamented with gold,
silver or bronze buttons. The sawal is a tradional tight
fitting trousers made of yakan fabric characterized by its
vertical stripes. Yakan The Pinalantupan, a type of skirt,
is layered over the trousers.
CONTEMPORARY ARTISTS IN MINDANAO

AND THEIR MASTERPIECES
https://bit.ly/3kRoee1
Red Genotiva (b. 1993) was born in Davao City. As

a child, he would draw characters from Japanese anime
that he often saw on television, posters, and other media
platforms. Soon, this hobby turned into a serious interest in
the arts. Among artists who influenced his art practice and
unique stylistic approach, Genotiva cites Mark Ryden, Ron
English, Charlie Immer, Naoto Hattori, Hikari Shimoda, and
Yoko D’ holbachie.
Indeed, Genotiva’s body of works tend to be
characterized by art world observers as pop-surrealist. He
often signs his works with the name “Oni” as a nod to his https://bit.ly/3oMQJvI
formative years. In Japanese folklore as remediated in animated content and manga, “oni”
means demon, ogre, or troll, also collectively called “yokai”
or creatures of the underworld.
Often these are tragic beings rejected by the light yet
imbued with human-like qualities in a visual culture where the
line between good and evil is never clearly demarcated.
Genotiva is known for his stylized figures of children –
anthropomorphic yet rendered in exaggerated proportions
with multiple eyes, tentacles, and are often set in dream-like
landscapes that at times teem with melancholy despite the
solid luminous hues. The images are almost kawaii but not
quite, adorable yet uncanny and unsettling. Oni’s solo
exhibitions include “Playhouse” at the Morning Light Gallery
in Davao (2018) and “Together We are Friends” at the Jose
T. Joya Gallery in UP Cebu. https://bit.ly/3oMQJvI
He has participated in a number of group exhibitions in Cebu City (2015-2018), Art

Portal Gallery for Contemporary Art Davao (2018) and District Gallery in Quezon City (2018).
A recent solo exhibition was titled “Children” and curated at the Art Portal Gallery for
Contemporary Art (2019). Genotiva currently resides in Cebu City.

Norman “Nonoy” F. Narciso (b. 1975) is from Davao City. He took up literature at the
Holy Cross of Davao College. He did not go through formal training in the visual arts in any
academic institution. He was inspired by the dynamic arts scene of Davao. During his
formative years, he involved himself in creative productions in school and the church. He
learned how to play the guitar and participated in community theatre.
At Magallanes Elementary School in Davao, he participated in the Rondalla. He also

attended painting workshops at the San Roque Elementary School. One will observe that
many of his artworks blur the ontologies of musical instrument, sculpture, and installation.
Jester Gumanao Oani (b. 1995) is from Lunga-og

Sto. Tomas, Davao Del Norte. The 8th of nine siblings, his
father was a skilled carpenter and his mother, like some of
his female siblings, is a seamstress. Thus, he witnessed his
family working with fabric, metal, wood, and industrial
materials. This kind of relationship with the materials of
industry informs Jester’s praxis as an artist.
Of his path as an artist, he said: “Being an artist is a

struggle due to the inconsistencies and economical
hindrances in art production. However, I’d rather focus on
recreating ideas, tinkering with concepts, and engaging with
issues in my environment. The act of creating sculpture is https://bit.ly/3oMQJvI
sometimes comparable to play, as though I am creating
a toy that I will eventually let go of before I helm another piece. I strive as an artist because I
am aiming for a sustainable and meaningful life through my artworks and practice.”
Oani has already been featured in a number of remarkable exhibits since 2012. One
is the 45th Shell National Student Art Exhibition in Ayala Museum, Makati City where many
emerging artists begin their careers. Others include “Bata-Bata” in SM Lanang Premiere
organized under Kublai Millan. The years 2013 to 2015 were marked by several local art
events in Davao, mostly in malls, and other pragmatic spaces. The artist has also been
included in exhibits at the Museo Dabawenyo (2016) and one organized by the Finale Art File
Gallery in SM City Ecoland in Davao (2016). In 2019, his work was well received in Art Blast
2019 hosted by Artasia Gallery in SM Megamall (2019).
