Lesson
Local Materials Used in
1 Contemporary Arts
Material, or the substance are the things in which the art is made off. Through these
materials, the artists express and communicate feelings and ideas. Some
contemporary artists used found materials like old bottles, scraps, and unusual
materials in creating their artwork.
In Sculpture, the sculptor uses metal, wood, stone, clay and glass.
The architect uses wood, bamboo, bricks, stone, concrete and various building
materials.
The painter uses pigments (eg. watercolor, oil, tempera, textile paint, acrylic, ink,
etc.) on a usually flat ground (wood, canvas, paper, stone wall s uc h as in a cave
painting.

The printmaker uses ink printed or transferred on a surface (wood, metal, plates, or
silk screen that is in keeping with a duplicating o reproducing process. While
paintings are unique and one of a kind, prints can be reproduced in several pre-
determined editions.
Musician uses sound and instruments (including the hum an voice) A T’boli chanter
sings creation stories in a way that is different from a classical singer or pop singer
influenced by the Western music scale.
The dancer uses body and its movements. Dance is often accompanied by music,
but there are dances that do not rely on musical accompaniment to be realized.
Dance can tell stories, but at other times, they convey abstract ideas that do not rely
on a narrative.
Theater artist integrates all the arts and uses stage, production design, performance
elements and script to enable the visual, musical, dance and other aspects to come
together as a whole work.
The photographer and film maker use the camera to record the outside world. The
film maker uses cinematographic camera to record and put together production
design, sound engineering, performance, and screenplay. In digital photography and
film, the images can be assimilated into the computer, thus eliminating the need for
celluloid or negatives, processing chemicals or print.

The writer of a novel, poetry, nonfiction and fiction uses words.


The Designer, the performance artist, and the installation artist combine use of the
range of different materials.

What Is It
ARTS AND CRAFT OF MINDANAO
Mindanao, referred to as “THE
LAND OF PROMISE”, is the second
largest and southernmost island in the
Philippine Archipelago. Mindanao also
has the largest concentration of ethno-
linguistic groups and culturally diverse
island. These groups are mostly Muslims
from the Badjao, Iranun, Jama Mapun,
Kalagan, Kalibugan, Manobo,
Maguindanao, Sama Bangingi, Sama
Pangutaran, Samal, Sangil, Tausug, and
Yakan groups. Other groups are the
Lumads, or those who have maintained
their indigenous beliefs and traditions
instead of converting to Islam or Christianity. Before Islam came to the Philippines, early
Filipinos worshipped believe that plants and inanimate objects are home to ancestral spirits.
They also believed that natural phenomena are caused by gods. These indigenous
beliefs system is called animism. The conversation of the natives and the arrival of Muslim
traders and merchants resulted in new forms of artistic impressions. This fusion of beliefs
created a unique blend of spirituality and creativity.

ATTIRE, TEXTILES, AND TAPESTRIES


The Bilaan or B’laan is an ethnolinguistic
group that inhabit some parts of South Cotabato,
North Cotabato, and Davao del Sur. B’laan is a
combination of two words, “bila” which means
“house” and “an” which means people. They are
known for embroidery, brass ornaments and
beadwork that are integrated in their traditional
clothing. The women wear heavy brass belts with
numerous tiny bells that hang around their
waistline. They also cut mother-of-pearl into small
shapes that look like sequins called takmun.

Ikat is a process of dyeing the fabric where


the yarns are tightly wrapped with the strings and dyed before weaving. The textiles usually
contain three colors: shades of black or browns, red or ochre (darker shade of orange), and
ecru (the color of undyed abaca).

The Bagobos are the group of people that live


in Davao. According to anthropologists, the name of
this ethnolinguistic group comes from the words “bago”
means “new” and “obo” means “growth”. This is
because they are believed to have come from the
mixture of the native population with the Hindu
migrants that entered Mindanao during the Sri Vijayan
and Majapahit Empires.
They make these clothes from a special textile
woven from abaca fibers called T’nalak. The men wear
t’nalak shorts, an undershirt, and a T’nalak coat. The Bagani or hero wear blood-red clothes
and a head-kerchief. The women wear wrap-around t’nalak skirt and blouses are adorned with
floral pattern.
The T’boli who live in and around Lake Sebu,
South Cotabato are famous for their complicated
beadwork, wonderful woven fabrics, and beautiful brass
ornaments. Tboli weavers believe that their gods and
ancestors visit them in their dreams to teach them the
designs and patterns that they have to weave. The most
famous T’boli dream weaver is Lang Dulay who received
the National Living Treasures – Gawad Manlilihikha ng
Bayan awarded by the National Commission for Culture
and the Arts or NCCA. Men are not allowed to touch the
materials used in the weaving process. They believe that
if they break the rules, the fiber will snap and the
designed will be ruined. T’nalak production is a painstaking process that requires patience, a
lot of creativity,good memory, and a range of skills learned from a young age by the weavers.
Maranao means “People of the Lake” referring to the people who occupy the lands
surrounding Lake Lanao Maranao. The Maranaos are known for their Malong. The Malong is
a traditional Filipino tube skirt that is made of hand woven or machine made multi colored
cotton cloth. Women wear it as a skirt, a dress, or a gown. Depending on how its folded, it can
also be used as hammock, a basket, a sleeping bag, a bathrobe, or a baby carriage. The
Malong is important part of Maranao life. A new born is wrapped in it and, as he or she grows,
it becomes a part of his or her daily life as clothing and as material for everyday use. When a
person dies, he or she is once again wrapped in a malong. A traditional dance called Kapa
Malong Malong or Sambisa Malong, demonstrates the various ways of wearing a malong and
its uses. Yakan Basilan is the home to the Yakans. They are popular for their skills in weaving.
They weave very intricate designs in their textiles, which they use for their clothes and other
accessories.

Yakan hand-gloomed fabrics are known for their


use of bold colors and geometric patterns. The
Seputangan is a square cloth used by the Yakan women
as a head cover or as a belt. The Badjulapi is a tight
blouse with longsleeves. It is ornamented with gold,
silver or bronze buttons. The sawal is a tradional tight
fitting trousers made of yakan fabric characterized by its
vertical stripes. Yakan The Pinalantupan, a type of skirt,

CONTEMPORARY ARTISTS IN MINDANAO AND


THEIR MASTERPIECES
Red
Genotiva (b. 1993) was born in Davao City. As a child, he
would draw charactersfromJapanese anime that he often
saw on television, posters, and other media platforms.
Soon, this hobby turned into a serious interest in the arts.
Among artists who influenced his art practice and unique
stylistic approach, Genotiva cites Mark Ryden, Ron
English, Charlie Immer, Naoto Hattori, Hikari Shimoda,
and Yoko D’ holbachie.
Indeed, Genotiva’s body of works tend to be
characterized by art world observers as pop-surrealist. He
often signs his works with the name “Oni” as a nod to his
formative years. In Japanese folklore as remediated in animated content and manga, “oni”
means demon, ogre, or troll, also collectively called “yokai”
or creatures of the underworld.
Often these are tragic beings rejected by the light
yet imbued with human-like qualities in a visual culture
where the line between good and evil is never clearly
demarcated. Genotiva is known for his stylized figures of
children – anthropomorphic yet rendered in exaggerated
proportions with multiple eyes, tentacles, and are often set
in dream-like landscapes that at times teem with
melancholy despite the solid luminous hues. The images
are almost kawaii but not quite, adorable yet uncanny and
unsettling. Oni’s solo exhibitions include “Playhouse” at
the Morning Light Gallery in Davao (2018) and “Together
We are Friends” at the Jose T. Joya Gallery in UP Cebu.
He has participated in a number of group exhibitions in Cebu City (2015-2018), Art Portal
Gallery for Contemporary Art Davao (2018) and District Gallery in Quezon City (2018). A
recent solo exhibition was titled “Children” and curated at the Art Portal Gallery for
Contemporary Art (2019). Genotiva currently resides in Cebu City.

Norman “Nonoy” F. Narciso (b. 1975) is from Davao


City. He took up literature at the Holy Cross of Davao College. He did not go through formal
training in the visual arts in any academic institution. He was inspired by the dynamic arts
scene of Davao. During his formative years, he involved himself in creative productions in
school and the church. He learned how to play the guitar and participated in community
theatre.
At Magallanes Elementary School in Davao, he participated in the Rondalla. He also
attended painting workshops at the San Roque Elementary School. One will observe that
many of his artworks blur the ontologies of musical instrument,sculpture, and installation.

Jester Gumanao Oani (b. 1995) is from Lunga-og


Sto. Tomas, Davao Del Norte. The 8th of nine siblings, his
father was a skilled carpenter and his mother, like some
of his female siblings, is a seamstress. Thus, he witnessed
his family working with fabric, metal, wood, and industrial
materials. This kind of relationship with the materials of
industry informs Jester’s praxis as an artist.
Of his path as an artist, he said: “Being an artist is
a struggle due to the inconsistencies and economical
hindrances in art production. However, I’d rather focus on
recreating ideas, tinkering with concepts, and engaging
with issues in my environment. The act of creating
sculpture is sometimes comparable to play, as though I am creating a toy that I will eventually
let go of before I helm another piece. I strive as an artist because I am aiming for a sustainable
and meaningful life through my artworks and practice.”
Oani has already been featured in a number of remarkable exhibits since 2012. One
is the 45th Shell National Student Art Exhibition in Ayala Museum, Makati City where many
emerging artists begin their careers. Others include “Bata-Bata” in SM Lanang Premiere
organized under Kublai Millan. The years 2013 to 2015 were marked by several local art
events in Davao, mostly in malls, and other pragmatic spaces. The artist has also been
included in exhibits at the Museo Dabawenyo (2016) and one organized by the Finale Art File
Gallery in SM City Ecoland in Davao (2016). In 2019, his work was well received in Art Blast
2019 hosted by Artasia Gallery in SM Megamall (2019).

Lesson

1 Artistic Skills and Techniques

What’s In
The previous lesson scanned the arts and crafts in Mindanao. We were able to study the attire,
textiles, and tapestries created by B’laan, Bagobos, T’boli, Maranaos and Yakan groups. We also
recognized some Mindananoan contemporary artists and their masterpieces. These artists shared some
of their techniques in making contemporary artworks. These artistic skills and techniques will be
elaborated in this lesson.
Many contemporary artists do not have formal studies in the fine arts. Many of them are self-
taught. Concerned with the development of their talent and skills in artmaking, they study on their own,
interact with artists and read a lot about lives of artists and their artworks. They also explore the materials
in hardware stores, experiment with chemical reactions on their base material. Some hire resin makers,
house painters and materials fabricators to help them in constructing artworks.
In this lesson, we will learn the meaning of “artistic skill” and “technique” through actual
and hands-on activities. We will also learn that artists’ choice of material and how they use these
materials are at the heart of making art, and that these involves process and transformation.

What Is It

ARTISTIC SKILLS
With the broadening of the art world, many people are getting confused about what qualifies as
an artistic skill. Artistic skills are abilities that are possessed by artists who operate within a fine art
capacity.
Each artist uses different mediums to develop their artistic skills. A medium is defined as the
material, or the substance out of which a work is made. Through these materials, the artists express and
communicate feelings and ideas.

The medium also defines the nature of the art form as follows:
1. The sculptor uses metal, wood, stone, clay, and glass. Sculptures fall within the category
of “three-dimensional” arts because they occupy space and have volume.
Pottery is a form of sculpture. Other examples are nudes or figures such as Guillermo
Tolentino’s Oblation, ritual objects such as bulul wood carvings in the cordillera, or the santos
or carvings of saints in Christian churches.

2. The architect uses wood, bamboo, bricks, stone, concrete and various building materials.
Buildings are also called “three-dimensional”. However, architecture has the added element
of time since we move into structures.

3. The painter uses pigments (e. g. watercolor, oil, tempera, textile paint, acrylic, ink, etc.) on
a usually flat ground (wood, canvas, paper, stone wall such as cave paintings.)

4. The printmaker uses ink printed or transferred on a surface (wood, metal plates, or silk
screen) that is keeping with a duplicating or reproducing process. Prints and paintings are
further classified as “two-dimensional” arts, because they include the surface or ground on
which coloring substances are applied. However, while paintings are unique and one-of-a
kind, prints can be reproduced in several pre-determined editions.

5. The musician uses sound and instruments (including human voice), while the dancers use
the body. A T’boli chanter sings creation stories in a way that is different from a classical
singer or pop music influenced by the Western music scale.

6. The dancer uses he body and its movement. Dance is often accompanied by music, but
there are dances that do not rely on musical accompaniment to be realized. Dance can tell
stories, but the other times, they convey abstract ideas that do not rely on a narrative.

7. The theater artist integrates all the arts and uses the stage, production design, performance
elements, and script to enable the visual, musical, dance and other aspects to come together
as a whole work.

8. The photographer and filmmaker use the camera to record the outside world. The
filmmaker uses the cinematographic camera to record and put together production design,
sound engineering, performance, and screenplay. In digital photography and film, the images
can be assimilated into the computer, thus eliminating the need for celluloid or negatives,
processing chemicals, or print.

9. The writer of a novel, poetry, nonfiction, and fiction uses words. The designer, the
performance artist and installation artist combine use of the range or materials above.

TECHNIQUE
Technique is the way artists use and manipulate materials to achieve the desired formal effect,
and communicate the desired concept, or meaning, according to his or her personal style (modern,
Neoclassic, etc.). The distinctive character or nature of the medium determines the technique.
Technique involves tools and technology, ranging from most traditional (for example carving, silkscreen,
analog photography, and filmmaking) to the most contemporary (digital photography, digital filmmaking,
music production, industrial design, and robotics).

Here are some of art techniques used by artists.


1. Collage – is the technique of an art production used in the visual arts where the artwork is made
from on assemblage of different forms, thus creating a new whole. Collage may sometimes
include magazines and newspaper clippings, ribbons, paints, bits of colored or handmade
papers, portions of other artwork or texts, photographs, and other found objects, glued to a piece
of paper or canvas.
2. Decollage – is the oppositeof collage; instead of an image is being built up all or parts of existing
images, it is created by cutting, treating away or otherwise removing pieces of an original image.
The French word “Decollage” in English means “Take-off” or “To become Unglued” or “To
become unstuck”. Example of decollage include cut-up technique. Similar technique is the
lacerated poster, a poster in which one has been over another.
3. Graffiti – are writing or drawings that have been scribed, scratched, or painted illicitly on a wall
or other surface, often in a public space. Graffiti range from simple written words to elaborate
wall paintings. Graffiti may express underlying social and political messages, and a whole genre
of artistic expression is based spray paint graffiti styles.
4. Land Art – earth works, or earth arts is an art movement in which landscape and the work of art
are inextricably linked. It is also an art form that is created in nature, using natural materials such
as soil, rock (bed rock, bolders, stones), organic media (logs, branches, leaves), and water which
introduced materials such as concrete, metal asphalt, or mineral pigments.
5. Digital Arts – is an artistic work or practice that uses digital technology as an essential part of
the creative or presentation process. Digital art is work made with digital technology or presented
on digital technology. This includes images done completely on computer or hand-drawn images
scanned into a computer and finished using a software program like Adobe Illustrator. Digital art
can also involve animation and 3D virtual sculpture renderings as well as projects that combine
several technologies. Some digital art involves manipulation of video images. After some
resistance, the impact of digital technology has transformed activities such as paintings, drawing,
sculpture, and music/sound art, while new form such as net art.
6. Mixed Media – It refers to a work of visual art that combines various traditionally distinct visual
art. For example, work on canvas that combines paint, ink and collage. When creating a painted
or photograph work using mixed media, it is important to choose the layers carefully and allow
enough dying time between the layers to ensure the final work will have structural integrity, if
many different layers are imposed. Many effects can be achieved by using mixed media. Found
objects can be used in conjunction with the traditional artist to attain a wide range of self-
expression.
7. Print Making – is the process of making artworks by painting, normally in the paper. Prints are
created by transforming ink from a matrix ink from a matrix or through a prepared screen to a
sheet of paper or other material. Common types of matrices include metal plates, usually copper
or zinc, or polymer plates for engraving or etching; stone aluminum of polymer for lithography;
blocks of wood crafts and wood graving; and linoleum for linocuts. Screen made of silk or
synthetic fabrics are used for the screen-printing process.
8. Frottage – is the technique of rubbing with crayon on a piece of paper which has been placed
over an object or an image. The impression of the image can be created using leaves, woods,
wire screen, or metal with embossed image or words.
9. Decalcomania – is the process of applying gouache to paper or glass then transferring a reversal
of the image onto canvas or other flat materials.
10. Decoupage – is done by adhering cut-outs of paper and then coating these with one or
transparent coating of varnish.

11. Eggshell mosaic - is an artistic technique that uses tiny parts of eggshell to create a whole
image or object. Mosaics are usually assembled using small tiles that are square, but they can
also be round or randomly shaped.
12. Trapunto painting – is the technique used by Pacita Abad where her canvases are padded,
sewn, and often filled with sequins, beads, shell, buttons, tiny mirrors, bits of glass, rickrack,
swatches of precious textiles and other things that she picks up from her travels and journey.

Art is considered an “artifact’ when it is directly experienced and perceived. It can be spatial and
static or unmoving (e.g., a painting or building, or a novel) or time based and in motion (e.g., a live
theater production, mobile sculpture).
To know the full meaning of a work, it is also necessary to study the material from which it is made
and how it is made.

What’s In
In previous module, we have learned the meaning of artistic skills and techniques.
Many contemporary artists do not have formal studies in the fine arts. They develop their
artistic skills and techniques by themselves. It is necessary study the medium and techniques
used by contemporary artist to understand their work.

What I Need to Know


First, one needs to be clear about what the term contemporary art has come to
mean. Contemporary art, to be put simply, is art of today. From a painting to a
sculpture and from photography to a performance, it can be anything as long as it is produced
in today’s era. With no specific medium or apparatus, Contemporary Art has been interpreted
differently in different times and different regions. This genre of art is believed to have started
in the late 1960s by the end of modernism art era.
This lesson will teach us everything about the concept of contemporary arts and its
characteristics. You will also see some contemporary art works that illustrates these
characteristics.

From the Word Puzzle presented, what should be our topic?

What Is It
CHARACTERISTICS OF CONTEMPORARY ARTS
The most prominent feature of contemporary art is the fact that it has no distinct feature
or a single characteristic. It is defined by the artist’s ability to innovate and bring out a modern
masterpiece. Here are a few of the technical characteristics:

Innovation in Art
From the meaning of contemporary, contemporary art is an art that is living in present
times. It reflects current issues or current events. So, from time to time it changes along with
the society. It could sometimes break the rules of traditional art, created by modern humans.
Contemporary artists have been the pioneers in introducing new forms of art to the
world. Different art forms have been combined or newer ideas employed to bring out newer
types of art. It could be a public mood, and it could be an effect of being resourceful of any
artist. Contemporary art guides us to have reflection on our society and its issues on politics,
economy, culture and the likes. Contemporary artists use their masterpieces to comment on
cultural, political, and global issues, including race, feminism, human rights, civil, rights,
gender equality, wars, economic inequality, and global conflicts.

Change is a very significant aspect of humanity, still, art remain as part of living.
Collage art is an example of innovation that
proved to be a great example of modern contemporary
art. Likewise, mixed forms of assemblage, different
variants of kinetic art as well as different categories of
photography, animations and land art are a result of
bringing together newer ideas.
Here are some contemporaryart works that reflects the
society.

Hangarin (Aspiration/Goal) is a depiction of the
passionate Filipino interest in sports, especially
basketball. The game is part of daily life for young
men in particular, who enjoy its physicality and
community appeal. In a dynamic, well observed work,
Garibay illustrates a group of youths jostling on a
court set in a closed if not confined urban
environment.

In the crowded complexity of a street festival, so
much a part of the rhythm of Filipino community
life, we see the signs and symbols of faith and
begin to look for the figure of Christ.

Using New Materials


Another characteristic that was employed to bring about modern art was the
employment of different objects, materials that looked useless to the common man but were
brought to great use by modern artists. The means or instruments to make the works of
contemporary art are changing and new technologies are used day by day.
For instance, painters used pieces of newspapers as a backdrop to their canvases and
created masterpieces of modern art from it. It was unprecedented to use something like a
newspaper in a painting. Similarly, sculptors used pieces of junk to produce what is now known
as junk art. Also, common items like cars, chairs, boxes have been used masterfully to create
assemblages. Some sculptors and other artists who work in three-dimensional media,
painters, photographers, video, and installation artists. They make use of materials and media
such as wood, paper, paint, milk, rice, pollen, wax, plaster, stone, glass, metal, plastics,
photos, slides, videos, and computers.

Here are some contemporary art works that used new materials.

Use of Color
Traditionally, color was used as means to bring reality to paintings and art pieces. However,
modern artists experimented with colors and used it unconventionally to make new textures
and themes and used them in their pieces of art. The colors used are strong and the content
is symbolic.
Color is often one of the most exciting components of a painting. In both figurative and abstract
painting, color can be used for its decorative beauty, to create mood and to express or arouse
an emotion. In nature and in art, color has a profound effect on the viewer.
Cool colors, which is based on blue undertones, bring a calming effect to the mind. These
colors range from cold icy blues to warm and nurturing Mediterranean turquoises. Blue
represents dependability. Warm colors, which is based on yellow undertones, tend to convey
emotions ranging from happiness to violence. Red, orange, and yellow colors trigger hunger.
Red instantly attracts, makes people excited and increases the heart rate.

Two watercolor paintings showing warm and cool colors. The warm painting on the
right is predominately shades of orange and yellow. The cool painting on the left is
predominately blue and green. These two paintings serve as demonstrations of how different
the feelings are between the color temperatures.
As an example, expressionism was mostly based on the vibrant and expressive use of
colors as a tool to innovate their paintings. Expressionist art tried to convey emotion and
meaning rather than reality. Each artist had their own unique way of "expressing" their
emotions in their art. In order to express emotion, the subjects are often distorted or
exaggerated.

lOMoARcPSD|22041883

Newer Techniques
Modern art is not only about playing and experimenting with colors and objects, rather
it has also given birth to newer techniques that form the basis for contemporary art today.
Abstract expressionism is a style of art that has meant one of the main
manifestations of the spirit of the 20th century. It emphasizes the expressions of the self and
emotions. The colors are more violent, and the content has a symbolic tint.

Example of abstract expressionism


Chromolithography is a prime example of a technique that was developed by Jules
Cheret. Chromolithography is a unique method for making multi-color prints. A
chromolithograph is made using anywhere from eight to forty stones, one for each color. The
chromist, who specialized in breaking down the colors needed to re-create the painting in ink,
would document this process in a progressive proof book, so that the image could be recreated
easily again if needed.

Example of chromolithography

Another characteristic of contemporary art is that it is avant-garde and surrealistic.


Surreal artists introduced automatic drawing to the world of art. Surrealism was focused on
tapping into the unconscious mind to release creativity. Surrealistic art is characterized by
dream-like visuals, the use of symbolism, and collage images.

Fauvism comprises the first of the expressions of contemporary art. Its name refers to
a group of French painters who in 1905 filled the Paris autumn salon with works. The specific
characteristics of Fauvism are aggression in the use of colors (basically primary,
complementary along with garish tones) and their autonomy in relation to shapes.

Example of fauvism
Cubism is a style of art which aims to show all the possible viewpoints of a person or
an object all at once. It is called Cubism because the items represented in the artworks look
like they are made out of cubes and other geometrical shapes.

Example of cubism
Neoplasticism is based on two-dimensionality, use of straight lines and primary
colors. Its objective is to divest itself of the particular to manifest the purity of art.

Contemporary art has been interpreted differently in different times and different regions. Yet,
its characteristics such as innovation in art, using of new materials, use of color and newer
techniques remain the same.

What I Need to Know

Contemporary artists need to choose from a variety of mediums, sources, and


techniques to create art. It is said that there is no limit to art but knowing the appropriate
materials to use to make one could bring out the best out of the artwork. It could give a greater
impact to the audience.
In the end of this lesson, you are expected to create the intended final product using
appropriate materials for the best possible output. You will be revisiting some various ideas
on the essence of contemporary art. You will know some art materials and their suggested
uses. You will also learn what is meant by the word “local” and how can it be used as material

What Is It
LOCAL CONTEMPORARY ART WORKS IN MINDANAO
The term “local” can refer to material that is easily available. The local can also refer
to wherever the artist finds himself or herself. The “local” is dynamic, fluid, and constantly
changing. It involves an integration of various media: dance, music, the visual, digital, and
electronic arts; of various geographies: local, transnational, national; and of various spaces:
the “actual” as staged to the virtual as eternally documented or mediatized.

Here are some of the contemporaryart works made noted by local artists in Mindanao.
