What is It
Southeast Asia is known for its ancient aesthetic in conventional woven fabric
(Gittinger and Lefferts 1992). Its region consists of the eleven countries: Brunei,
Cambodia(Khmer), Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Vietnam, Myanmar (Burma), East
Timor, Laos, Philippines and Thailand. The forms of textiles, clothing and their designs
are remarkably similar in spite of the differences in language, culture and religion.
Batik is an ancient art that has been handed down for thousands of years. It is
an art medium and methodology for creating design, usually on cloth, by applying wax
to portions of the material and then dyeing it, then removing the wax. This can be done
to make vibrant colors and incredible designs. It is said to be wide spread in Middle
East, Africa, Indonesia, Malaysia, China, Thailand, Philippines, India and more.
Philippine arts reflect the diverse cultural influences and traditions of its society
since it is inhabited by different ethnic groups. It is divided into three islands namely:
Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao. Mindanao is home to different ethnic groups such as
Lumads, Maranao, Tausug, etc. Maranao culture is known for the exuberance and

vitality of its art forms. Their major art forms are carving, weaving and metalwork. Their
artworks include Sarimanok and Okir. Maranao arts and crafts are unrecognizable
without mentioning the “malong” an important part of their traditional clothing.
Machine-made printed cotton malongs made in Indonesia specifically for export to
Philippines, are commonly referred to as “batik” because the item is imported and also
a combination of different colors and patterns are used. Among traditional tribal
peoples like Maranao, malong is used in every life. The motif of their textile design is
the okir.

Okir is an exclusive artistic cultural heritage of the Maranaos of Lanao,
Philippines. The okir motif is an art depicting the indigenous originality and skill of the
Maranaos. It is a fine art of figuring, painting, carving and sculpturing depicting the
social and psychological identity of Maranao Society. It refers to a whole repertoire of
folk motifs which consists of plant forms that figures prominently in their artwork from
weaving to carving, to brass cast pieces. Okir design serves as significant cultural
symbols.

There are two categories of batik designs:
1. Hand painted – this is done through the use of canting, a small copper container
with one or more different-sized pipes.
2. Block printed – a metal block is formed by welding together strips of metal. To
make pattern, the metal block is dipped into molten wax and pressed against
the fabric.
Hand-made batik designs are created through the art of layering and mixing of
colors injected with creativity.
Questions:
1. What is batik?
2. How does the okir motif reveal the culture and society of the Maranao?
3. What is the contribution of Indonesian art to the life and culture of Maranao
people in the Philippines?
