Learner’s Tasks

Lesson Overview

Architecture is the art or practice of designating and constructing buildings.

Nowadays, the term does not only refer to structures. It may also include the
designed environment, such as gardens, which falls under landscape
architecture.
Sculpture is an artistic form in which hard or plastic are worked into three-
dimensional art objects. The designs may be embodied in freestanding objects,
in reliefs on surfaces, or in environments ranging from tableaux to context that
envelop the spectator.
Functional art refers to aesthetic objects that serve utilization purposes. The
genre is remarkably inclusive: it encompasses everything from furniture and
lightning to dishes.

Architecture

Torogan
The Torogan is the ancestral house of
the upper-class Maranao. It is the dwelling
place of the datu along with his wives and
children. There could not be any house larger
than torogan of the datu within the sultanate,
for this signifies rank, prestige and wealth.

The National Museum has declared the Maranao Torogan, specifically the
kawayan torogan as one of the National Cultural Treasures through Museum
Declaration No. 4-2008.

Panolong

Panalong is a wing-like ornament of the

torogan flaring out from the beams. This okir
carving usually features the naga or serpent,
pako rabong or stylized fern, as well as floral
and star-and-bud motifs.

The Grand Mosque of Cotabato

The largest mosque in the Philippines,
Sultan Hadji Hassanal Bolkiah Masjid sitting
near the idle bank of Tamontaka River is
founded by the Philippine Government and
the Sultan of Brunei, after whom the masjid
was named. The mosque occupies 5000
square meters of a 5-hectare land. The four
minarets stand at the towering 43 meters high
(more or less 15-story building).
Fort Pilar of Zamboanga

The historical Fort Pilar, also called Real

Fuerza de Nuestra Señora del Pilar de
Zamboanga, was founded in 1635 and still
stands strong until today. It was engineered
by Fr. Melchor de Vera, a Jesuit priest. It was
built to protect the people from pirates of Sulu
Sea.

 The Monastery is located atop of the hill
of Malaybalay, Bukidnon, founded by Fr.
Abbot Eduardo Africa and run by the
Benedictine Monks. The pyramid-like structure
was designed by the National Artist for
Architecture, Leandro Locsin. It is one of his
last designs and considered as one of his best,
aside from the Cultural Center of the
Philippines and Davao International Airport.

Santo Rosario Church of Camiguin

The Church is located at the town of

Sagay, Camiguin Island. The original church
was built in 1882 using coral stones, but the old
infrastructures were too weak. It was
retrofitted with steel bars using modern
building techniques.

Sculpture

Maitum Jar

An earthenware vessel for a secondary burial jar

from Sarangani province. These artifacts were first
discovered in 1992 and are now in the protection of
the National Museum.

 Wood carvers get their inspiration on the wildlife in their local area. Artisans
use the lost-wax casting method to produce more copies of sculpture with
intricate design such as bells, boxes and figures.

Rarub-A-Kong is a metallic armor made of brass plates, carabao horn and

interlocking ringlets. It is protective armor of Moro warriors as a counterpart to the

ivory in the form of the head of the naga or a serpent, handcrafted gold, and
hanged horse hair at the bottom of the handle.

It is used by adult males to test their skills and strength.

teapot or kettle used for hot
water, coffee, or tea.

Balanghay

The balanghai is also known as

balangay or Butuan Boat, is a large wooden
boat used by the colonial Filipinos to traverse
the seas for trade or migration.
It was first mentioned in the 16th
Century in the Chronicles of Pigafetta, and is
known as the oldest Pre-Hispanic watercraft
found in the Philippines.

Vinta

Vinta is traditionally made by the

Badjaos who live in the Sulu archipelago. It
consists of several colors and geometric
shapes, representing the colorful culture and
history of the Muslim people.

These boats are small and not meant

to be used for long ocean travel. They are
used for livelihood activities such as fishing and diving for pearls and
transportation around the archipelago.
