Three (3) Outstanding Traditional

Forms Of Weaving Without A
Medium and Techniques
Loom
(Visual Arts)
1. Palaspas (Palm- leaf frond)

WEAVING
1. It is a general method of
producing a surface or an object
by entwining a strip or strand.

2. The longitudinal strand is

called the warp, and the 2. Basketry
horizontal strand is called the
weft.

3. Related methods in weaving—

knitting, braiding, plaiting.

KNITTING:

3. Banig (mat)

PLAITING:

PALASPAS
- It was called such because of its
association with the Catholic ritual Palm
Sunday and it is actually originated in
indigenous worship rituals.
BRAIDING:

- He used the term PALASPAS ART when TEXTILE is the finest and most sophisticated form
referring to other types of palm leaf art for other of weaving that requires a loom (a machine for

FOUR BASIC TYPES OF BASKET WEAVES:
Coiled grasses, Plaited ribbons, Twined and
crossed soft fiber and wicker reed/ cane
PARTS OF THE BASKET: base, walls, rims,
handle, it may also include covers and accessories
It is a craft which has existed since Neolithic times.
It is called INSIBET or IMPAOD (among the
Ifugao, Bontoc, Ilianun and Itneg), GAB’LAN or
ABELLAN (among the indigenous groups in
Mindanao the Bagobo, B’laan, Mandaya, Manobo,
T’boli and Yakan)

MOST COMMON MATERIALS OF BASKET:

-He uses leaves, vines, and grasses, and also
recycled discarded materials such as bottle cups,
corrugated boxes, tarpaulin, and rubber tires into
elegant accent furniture.
BANIG
1. It is a mat woven from leaves or grass.
2. Banig can be grouped according to
weaving method: over-and-under weave
(found in most simple mats), open-work
weaves (such as Romblon buri mats),
Circular mats (employed in hat weaving),
Hexagonal weave and embroidery
methods (designs are latter added to a
mat)
Pina & Jusi- are traditional fabrics used by the
bordadoras of barong.
Pina- is a fabric made from pineapple fibers mixed
with silk.
Jusi- from abaca and banana silk but later mixed
with synthetic fibers.
PAINTINGS
Refers to the process of applying color or pigment
suspended in binder onto a flat or two- dimensional
surface such as paper, wood or cloth.

COMMON PAINTS: Acrylic paint, oil paint, water
color, tempera, enamel, and latex.

-he uses corn and banana leaves stalks treated
with gel as canvas for his paintings.
NORBETO MONTERONA
- an artist of Talaandig roots from Davao.
- he made his own brushes from bamboo and twigs
from his environment.
- Instead of stretching his canvas into frames, he
prepares them as a tapestry, then sews the edges
of the canvas.
SCULPTURE
It is the art of making three dimensional forms.
THREE BASIC METHODS CREATING
SCULPTURE:
1. Modelling or addition in the use of clay
2. Subtraction in carving of hard materials
3. Construction by assembling parts by adhesion or
welding.
UKIT OR WOODCARVING
Is a form of craft on wood by means of incising
designs with knife, or
subtracting parts of the material wood with a chisel
or mallet on chisel for hard type.
METAL CRAFT
include hand shaping and pounding of metal
sheets, a laborious method which transforms flat
metal sheets into sturdy, solid objects (e.g Gong
and Kulintang)
CASTING
a type of metal craft which refers to the process of
forming three- dimensional duplicates by using
molten material to solidify in a mold made from an
LOST-WAX—is a method often used in metal such
as bronze for sculptures or in silver and gold for
jewelry. Examples: batidor, tea kettle (gador and
ornate brass urns). Maranaos were known to be

brassware in the country.
COLD CASTING
is a process of mixing a variety of powder with a
binder resin and applying the mixture into a mold.
PAPER CRAFTING: 2 TYPES
PAPER MACHE
-refers to a substance made of pulp or sheets of
paper glued and pressed together and molded
while moist to form into a three- dimensional
object.
-It is called TAKA (traditional women’s craft) in
Paete, Laguna. It starts with choosing wood-
carved mold or TAKAAN as base (coated with lard
or oil) for shaping.
PAPER CUTTING ART
-it started in San Miguel, Bulacan through
PASTILLAS making or Pabalat art (a traditional
craft where carabao milk candies are made).
LUZ OCAMPO- made pastillas wrappers from
papel de hapon (Japanese paper)—cut- outs (that
depicts traditional motifs like Bahay kubo, Maria
Clara, pounding rice, fowls, fronds, flowers, and
trees).
ARCHITECHTURE
- is the creative conceptualization of graphic
descriptions of a building (building plans) or
blueprints that address a set of design objectives
(materials, construction techniques, and
instructions to successfully translate the concept of
the architect).
MATERIALS OF FILIPINO ARCHITECTURE
1. PLANT-BASED MATERIALS—
like wood or timber, bamboo, rattan,
leaves, and fibers are abundant in
historical architecture because of:
-availability and;
-readiness-of-use from the
immediate surroundings.
2. MASONRY
-refers to building with small building units
like concrete hollow block, brick or stone,
with mortar or palitada as a bonding
agent.
3. METALS
-are extracted from mined minerals from
the earth.
 -they are favorable for their durability and 2. -consists of a horizontal member called
strength. lintel or beam, supported at both ends by
vertical members called post or columns,
USES OF METALS like;

4. EDITING
FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES IN THE
CREATION OF FORM IN FILM: -is the linking of two different pieces of film (i.e. two
different shots)
1. Film depends on light
-connecting one scene to the next and then several
