 What I Need to Know

The art of the Philippines refers to the works of art that have developed and
accumulated in the Philippines from the beginning of civilization in the country up
to the present era. Philippine art reflects to its society and non-Filipinos the wide
range of Asian cultural influences and how these influences honed the country’s
arts.

After going through this module, you are expected to trace the external (foreign)
and internal (indigenous) influences reflected in the design of an artwork and in
the making of a craft or artifact.

Specifically, you are expected to:

1. identify the Asian art and its contribution to Philippine artwork;

2. draw and design own craft that has a foreign influence;
3. value the importance of foreign influence in making craft and artifact.

Art influences society by changing opinions, instilling values and translating

experiences across space and time. Art in this sense is communication; it allows
people from different culture and different times to communicate with each other
via images, sounds and stories. Art is often a vehicle for social change.

THE EXTERNAL AND INTERNAL INFLUENCES OF AN ARTWORK IN CHINA,

EGYPT AND INDIA TO THE PHILIPPINE ARTS

POTTERY

CHINA

Chinese pottery, also called Chinese ceramics, are objects made

of clay and hardened by heat: earthenware, stoneware, and
porcelain. Nowhere in the world would give pottery such
importance as in China, and the influence of Chinese porcelain
on later European pottery has been great.

PHILIPPINES

Filipinos created pottery since 3500 years ago. Ceramic and clay
jars were used as secondary burial jars during the ancient times.

6
Filipino pottery had other uses as well. During the Neolethic period of the
Philippine pottery, they made plates and cups; and formed water vessels and
other materials of different uses.

JEWELRY HISTORY

EGYPT

Thousands of years of advancement enabled jewelry to

spread from the exclusive art form of the rich to the
common personal items of adornment which are today
used by everyone around the world to express themselves
in various visual fashionable ways.

PHILIPPINES

The Philippine jewelry-making trade has been in existence

since the early century. Historical records indicate that
jewelry-making existed way back to the late stone age as
evidenced by bracelets, pendants and beads from the era.
It is believed that skill in making jewelry has been acquired
by the early Filipinos from their Asian neighbors like the Chinese.

Traditionally, jewelry-making is a home based industry intended to be a source of

livelihood for the family.

TATTOO

CHINA AND INDIA

Indian tattoo
Chinese tattoo

7
Tattooing is an ancient art form. Though no place can be identified as having
originated with this form of body art, tattoos have been discovered on mummies
and in ancient art cultures across the world including China and India.

PHILIPPINES

Tattooing has been a part of Filipino life since pre-Hispanic

colonization of the Philippine islands. The most famous
tattooed indigenous people of the Philippines lived in North
Luzon, especially among the Bontoc, Kalinga, and Ifugao
people. The Visayans of the Southern islands were also heavily tattooed.

TEXTILE

INDIA AND CHINA

The spinning of yarn woven fabrics was probably originated from basket
weaving. Cotton, silk, wool, and flax fibers were used as textile materials in
ancient Egypt, cotton was used in India by 3000 before the Christian Era (BCE),
and silk production is mentioned in Chinese chronicles dating to about the same
period.

Indian Textile Chinese Textile

PHILIPPINES

Textile hand-weaving is one of the most attractive and interesting traditional

crafts of the Philippines. Despite the current dominance of modern textile
production, weaving textiles by hand and loom still continues
in remote places and communities all over the archipelago
from north to south.

8
In Northern Luzon Island, the ethnic groups known to have weaving traditions are
the Ilocanos, Ifugao, Kalinga, Itneg, Gaddang, Kankanaey and Bontoc.

The Ilocano still practice hand-weaving using the pedal loom. Their materials are
cotton and natural dyes, although now they use store-brought threads and
synthetic dyes. They know several weaving techniques and designs, passed
down to many generations. In recent years, there have been several movements
to strengthen Ilocano hand-weaving. The common Ilocano words for “to weave”
is “abel” and for “a woven material” is called “inabel.” Also, the Cordillera ethnic
groups have unique and fascinating textile weaving traditions.

Most of them use the black-strap loom and the ikat, a dyeing technique that uses
tie-resist (prevent the dye from reaching all the cloth) on the yarns, which is
shared process among a number of Southeast Asian cultures. Their textiles
serve many functions from fashion to rituals. The textile tradition is one of the
most vibrant examples of the richness of Philippine culture.
