LESSON

What’s in
The artworks of different regions above is the simplest example of Filipinos creative
and colorful people in the world. The types of arts that are produced in different
regions, each regions has its unique specialties or product to take pride.
Pahiyas
One of the Country’s biggest and most colorful harvest festival every May 15 th, along
with the gravest festivals of the towns of tayabas, Sariaya, Gumaca and Tiaong. These
are the Philippines best known harvest festivals to honor Sn Isidro Labrador the patron
saint of farmers. Known as the “Pahiyas” , the festival is deeply rooted in the traditional
celebration of the townsfolk in thanksgiving for bounty harvest. Decorations called
“Kiping”, leaf – shaped and multi-colored rice paste wafers which used to decorate the
facades of the homes along with fruits and flowers from nature. The visual and culinary
feast has gained national and international recognition. The Lucban town center is a
permanent facility for merchandising crafts and delicacies including special events that
showcases the lifestyle if its envivors.
Taka (Laguna)
The art of “taka” or “taka-making” is not an exclusive Pinoy art.
Paper mache and decouping have been around for centuries.
In the Philippines, the first recorded or mention of a created
taka was by a woman named Maria Bague in the 1920’s. She
has wooden moulds that were covered in strips of paper dipped
in a sticky paste. She would later paint them colorfully and
presented them as children’s toys. Due to a fire though, none of the original takas were
save. Taka making became more popular during the American colonization period
when there was an excess of newsprint. And because Pinoys hate wasting anything,
the people of Paete decided to create more takas and even diversified into different
animals and not just the traditional red horse.
Pagbuburda (Laguna)
Trying to “encourage” to try embroidery when. Somehow it was a pre –
requisite then (and probably a birth right) for all women to know basic
housework and embroidery. For teaching how to do a chain stitch and
other sewing techniques but its just did not have the skill she did for
pagbuburda. The art or embroidery is happily alive and flourishing in
these towns. Although it’s mostly done by women who are wives of the
farmers who are also carefully and delicately embroidering floral
designs during their” off-season”.
A fairly new type of Philippine folk art, Singkaban is the art of shaving
bamboo into artful creations that can be used as décor for arches or
for the home. Skilled craftsmen patiently shaves off the bamboo, layer
by layer, to create curls and delicate twirls of thin bamboo. Singkaban
is usually a celebratory art. Singkaban craftmen create these
gregariously designed bamboo arches for fiestas, weddings and
other celebrations that involve the entire community. Perhaps it is our sense of
“bayanihan” that inspired this artform ensuring that art is appreciated and is accessible
to everyone in the community and their guests.

Puni or Palm leaf folding (Bulacan)
Another dying folk art, Puni or palm leaf folding was intended
to create artful toys for kids. However, puni can also be used
to create woven baskets, bags, and even fans! The most
common permutation of Puni art is the palaspas we see
every Holy Week. Because of the abundance of coconut
leaves, the Pinoys have ingeniously created toys and other
items through Puni. Although fresh coconut or palm leaves
are most commonly used, the leaves dry and crumble within
a few days. It is now are dried, treated and dyed for strength and color.
What is an art?
Art is “human ingenuity in adapting natural things to man’s use.” (Webster)
It is synonymous with skill, artifice, and craft, which all mean the faculty of what
devised.
Skill stresses technical knowledge and proficiency.
Cunning suggests ingenuity and subtlety in devising, inventing, or
executing.
Artifice suggests mechanical skill especially in imitating things in nature.
Craft may imply expertness in workmanship and guile in attaining one’s end.

Paint your palette blue and gray
Look out on a summer’s day
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul
