Muslim Art Forms

Islamic traditions were first introduced to the Malays of the southern Philippines in
the 14th century. The dominant design in their artworks are okir and sarimanok. The
design tradition shows evidence of Indian and Islamic influences. Both okir and
sarimanok designs are used as decorative elements in Muslium architecture.

The okir designs convey the figurative symbols of

animals, plants, and mythical figures. The okir
style is highly decorative, with long curvilinear lines
and arabesques designs.
Another important motif is the sarimanok design. This design shows a bird holding a
fish in its beak or talons.

their inherent artistry. Most of their arts and crafts were patterned after okir or okkil.

 A torogan ( lit. 'resting place' or 'sleeping place') is a traditional house built by the
Maranao people of Lanao, Mindanao, Philippines. A torogan was a symbol of high
