KEY CONCEPT
In one form or another art has always been around. It helps mankind in the improvement of various
activities and their products. It has a varied and multiple complexes. It is as wide as an ocean, covers a wide
range of activities such as photography, painting, sculpting, and architecture, etc. But as time rolls by newer
forms of art arose, such as music, theatre, and photography, etc., in which are now a days considered the
most beautiful types of performing arts.

From the preceding lesson we have learned that traditional arts, like the pre - colonial indigenous
arts are also contemporary. They are living traditions and are produced up to the present, in modified ways.
In this lesson, you will learn about our national living treasures, more formally known as the awardees
of Gawad sa Manlilikha ng Bayan (GAMABA).
Their incomparable dedication to craftsmanship and excellence show how these Filipinos lives and
work. Many cultural practices of indigenous communities were preserved because of their passion, abilities,
and tenacity in passing down their tradition to the youngsters. It’s one thing to be recognized as a living
legend of the arts in the Philippines, and it’s a whole other thing completely to be acknowledged as an
artist who has kept a rare sort of traditional Filipino creativity and ingenuity alive.
In 1992, the National Commission on Culture and therefore the Arts (NCCA) began selecting
and honoring recipients of the National Living Treasures Award, also referred to as Gawad sa
Manlilikha ng Bayan (GAMABA), through Republic Act No. 7355. It continues to be awarded today and
is handed out in the form of a medal.

REVIEW

The picture above shows the thirteen National Living treasures who have possess technical and
creative skills, creating work with fine artistic quality, and ties to community and folk-art traditions. More than
that, they show a strong character and unfaltering integrity, leading them to earn the respect and admiration
of the people.
The awardees yield art forms that are entwined into daily life. These proves how pre - colonial
traditions continue through to the present.
How does tradition become contemporary, and the contemporary traditional?
(Retrieved from Contemporary Art from the Regions textbook (2016 pp.57)
Traditional art is based on indigenous people’s
1 cultures that are largely honed by oral tradition. It
finds deep affinities with nature, place, society, ritual, and spirituality and everyday life. In traditional
Contemporary Philippine Arts from the Regions 4

integrative art, forms and expressions do not normally end up as objects distanced from everyday living. The
site of dissemination and knowledge transfer is neither in the formal spaces of a museum nor a theater. The
process of creation is usually shared among members of the community, and appeals to broader aspects of
life.(extracted from Contemporary Art from the Regions textbook , Flaudette May Datulin [Link] pp. 58 ) Thus,
it emphasis on the intangible and communal aspects of art production that are closely aligned with the
process based and collaborative inclination of some contemporary art practices.
The worker of a farmer named Teofilo Garcia of San Quintin in the Province of Abra, 2012 GAMABA
awardee who have discovered and popularized the durable tabungaw hat out of enlarged upo or gourd. He
hollowed out the upo / tabungaw, varnished and polished it to make it more durable and unique yellow sheen.
He used different mediums such as varnish to strengthens organic material, strips of rattan (uway)
to line the hat, fern (nito) is placed on the mouth of the hat as decoration. He intended to transform the
harvest into durable hats to protect the people who are exposed for long hours under the heat of the sun,
especially the farmers. Until now, he shared his knowledge and skills of making the Tabungaw hat at San
Quintin National High School and inspires the youth to value tradition and to ensure its preservation.
Base from the given example of the work of Teofilo Garcia, we reiterate that Philippine traditional art,
though based on long - standing, established practices, has always been contemporary in a sense that it is
art that is being made now, and that it persists as part of continuing performance of tradition ((extracted from
Contemporary Art from the Regions textbook, Flaudette May Datulin [Link] pp. 57).
On the other hand, contemporary-traditional art refers to an art produced at the present period that reflects
the current culture by utilizing classical techniques in drawing, painting, and sculpting. Practicing artists are
mainly concerned with the preservation of time-honored skills in creating works
of figurative and representational forms of fine art as a means to express human emotions and experiences.
Subjects are based on the aesthetics of balancing external reality with the intuitive, internal conscience
driven by emotion, philosophical thought, or the spirit. The term is used broadly to encompass all styles and
practices of representational art, such as Classicism, Impressionism, Realism, and Plein Air (En plein air)
painting. Technical skills are founded in the teachings of the Renaissance, Academic Art, and American
Impressionism ([Link]

SHORT DISCUSSION

GUMABA Awardees

Uwang Ahadas, musician

A Yakan of Lamitan, Basilan was awarded for his dexterity in playing Yakan musical
instruments such as the kwintangan, gabbang, agung, kwintangan kayu, tuntungan
among others. He has a deep knowledge of the aesthetic possibilities and social
contexts of those instruments. In spite of the dimming of his eyesight, he has
devoted his life to the teaching of Yakan musical traditions
([Link]

Yakan musical instruments are not the easiest or most affordable to maintain, but Uwang Ahadas of
Lamitan, Basilan made it his life’s work to master them. From an early age, he and his siblings were
encouraged to play these instruments, and he developed a passion for them, training himself by observing
older members of the community. At age 20, he broke tradition by reaching excellence in playing the
kwintangan, an instrument typically played by a woman. The instrument, made up of logs arranged beneath
a tree near a rice field, is used to call for abundant grains and rice growth. He is also dedicated to sharing
his knowledge to younger folk; his teaching style is hands-on and supportive, giving his students his full
attention. He was awarded in 2000. (

Magdalena Gamayo, textile weaver

Based in Pinili, Ilocos Norte, Magdalena Gamayo took up weaving when


she was 16, guided by her aunt’s patterns. She received her first loom from her
father three years later, which she would end up using for 30 years. She taught
herself traditional patterns, such as kusikus (whirlwind), marurup (Milky Way), and
sinan paddak ti pusa (cat’s pawprint), building on the more common inuritan (geometric
design) and sinan-sabong (flowers)

.Gamayo’s skill and instinct are none more apparent than they are in her ability to replicate designs she’s
only seen once. Her binakol, or woven cloth, continues to draw praise and awe for its above-average thread
count and uniform weave. To keep Ilocos’ abel weaving tradition alive, she teaches her practice to her
cousin’s daughter-in-law and sister-in-law. She was awarded in 2012.

Eduardo Mutuc, metalsmith, and artist

A Kapampangan from Central Luzon is recognized for reviving the Spanish


colonial-era craft of Plateria. This self-taught master craftsman found his calling in
producing religious and secular art in silver, bronze, and wood. In doing so, and in
his pursuit of perfection for himself and his apprentices, he assures the continuity
of this rich tradition. Having finished up to elementary school, Eduardo Mutuc, a
farmer at the time, became an apprentice to furniture carvers to earn additional income. He had no prior
knowledge of the work he was getting into, but this did not stop him from expanding his experience and
becoming one of the most respected creators of religious and secular art today. He uses wood, silver, and
bronze to create exquisitely detailed and lifelike pieces of varying sizes: altars, mirrors, retablos, and even
carosas. Mutuc is based in Apalit, Pampanga. He was awarded in 2004.

Lang Dulay, T’nalak weaver

A T'boli of Lake Sebu, South Cotabato, was awarded for weaving the abaca
ikat cloth called t'nalak . She has produced creations which remain faithful to the
T’boli tradition as manifested in the complexity of her design, fineness of
workmanship and quality of finish. In Lang Dulay’s family, the weaving of the t’nalak
(a fine abaca cloth) took place before or after farm work, when the weather was cool
and the conditions were better for the

product. Dulay, who grew up in Lake Sebu, South Cotabato, was taught to weave by her mother when she
was 12. As demand grew for new designs, she persisted and kept working with traditional patterns, even
though they were harder to complete — she knew around a hundred, including bulinglangit (clouds),
kabangi (butterfly), crocodiles, and flowers. She valued purity, so much so that she never washed her
t’nalak with soap. She was awarded in 1998 and died in 2015.

Samaon Sulaiman, musician

A Maguindanaon of Mamasapano, Maguindanao. He was awarded for


his outstanding artistry and dedication to his chosen instrument, the Magindanao
kutyapi. Kutyapi is a two-stringed plucked lute, regarded as one of the most
technically demanding and difficult to master among Filipino traditional.
([Link]

Musician Samaon Sulaiman was a master of the kutyapi, a two-stringed lute that requires highly
technical skill to play. The Maganoy, Maguindanao native learned from his uncle, Pinagunay, at age 13,
developing and learning different forms and styles of playing the instrument.

The sound is melodic and rhythmic, its effect meditative and captivating. He was also proficient in
playing instruments such as the kulintang, agong (a suspended gong with a wide rim), gandingan (a gong
with a narrow rim), and tambul. Sulaiman’s fascination for his craft led him to become an influential teacher.
He was awarded in 1993 and died in 2011. ([Link]

Haja Amina Appi, Pandan mat weaver

Lives in Ungos Matata, Tandubas, Tawi-Tawi,. She is recognized as the


master mat weaver among the Sama indigenous community of Ungos Matata.
Her colorful mats with their complex geometric patterns exhibit her precise sense
of design, proportion and symmetry and sensitivity to color.
([Link]

Weaving pandan mats is a long and difficult process that is handed down from woman to woman
across generations: Pandan leaves are harvested and made into narrow, long strips, sun-dried, pressed, and
dyed before finally becoming suitable for weaving. The resulting mats are used for sleeping and saying
prayers or given as gifts to newly-weds. Haja Amina Appi of Ungos Matata, Tandubas, Tawi-Tawi created
intricate mats that boast beautiful geometric designs, vibrant colors, and fine symmetry. She was awarded
National Living Treasure in 2004. She experimented with her work and developed her own tints to create the
hues she had in mind. Appi died in 2013, but her art lives on through her children and other young women in
her community. (([Link]

Federico Caballero, chanter and educator

A Panay-Bukidnon of Calinog, lloilo was awarded for his mastery of


chanting the sugidanon, the epic tradition of Central Panay. He ceaselessly worked
for the documentation of the epics of his people painstakingly piecing together the
elements of this oral tradition nearly lost.

his expertise in the Sugidanon, a Central Panay epic traditionally chanted while lying on a hammock, and his
work in the preservation of oral literature, documenting 10 Panay-Bukidnon epics in an extinct language with
close ties to Kinaray-a. His love of folklore began when he was young, hearing tales of grand adventures as
bedtime stories, and his mother taught him to recite epics in lieu of doing household chores. In his spare
time, he also works with the Department of Education’s Bureau of Non-Formal Education, teaching elders to
read and write. He was awarded in 2000. ([Link]
[Link] ).

Ginaw Bilog, poet

A Hanunuo Mangyan of Mansalay, Oriental Mindoro. Awarded for


faithfully preserving the Hanunuo Mangyan script and Ambahan poetry. He has
promoted the local script and poetry so that the art will not be lost but preserved.
The Mangyan script is one of the four remaining syllabic scripts in the country,
and Ginaw Bilog’s work has been crucial to its preservation. Based in Mansalay,
Oriental Mindoro, the poet was known for writing Ambahan (a metaphoric poem
comprising seven-syllable lines), first in a notebook, then on traditionally used
bamboo tubes. The poems, often recited with music at social gatherings and used to convey messages
among the Hanunuo Mangyan, had topics like advising the young, bidding a friend goodbye, and asking for
a place to stay. Bilog, who was awarded in 1993, died in 2003.

Salinta Monon, textile weaver

A GAMABA awrdee of Tagabawa Bagobo of Bansalan, Davao del Sur.


She was awarded for fully demonstrating the creative and expressive aspects of
the Bagobo abaca ikat weaving called Inabal at a time when such art is
threatened with extinction. Salinta Monon was 12 when she began learning to
weave the Inabal, a traditional Bagobo textile. In her home in Bansalan, Davao
del Sur, Monon would isolate herself from family to be able to concentrate on
creating her cloths and skirts, which took three to four months to finish,
respectively.

Her favorite pattern, despite or because of its difficulty, was the Binuwaya (crocodile), and she
continued weaving until her death in 2009. For her, not only was it a source of income, it was a source of
pride as well. She and her younger sister were the only Bagobo weavers left in their community, and she
dreamt of having a structure built for teaching new would-be weavers. She was awarded in 1998.
([Link]

Darhata Sawabi, textile weaver

A GAMABA awardee of barangay Parang, Jolo Island, Sulu province.


Has preserved the art of Pis Syabit weaving. It is difficult art of tapestry weaving
that creates the traditional squares used by the Tausug for ornamentation.
Despite the conflict in Jolo, Sawabi’s dedication to her art enhanced the
preservation of traditional Tausug designs. Darhata Sawabi’s mission was to
lead young women towards making a living out of her craft. The Parang, Sulu-
based textile weaver’s primary creation was the headpiece Pis Siyabit — pis
stands for the pattern, which is said to be derived from India’s mandala, depicting spirituality through
geometric forms, and Siyabit refers to the hook and technique. She gained recognition for the precision of
her work and her passion for preserving traditional designs, as well as teaching the youth and was awarded
in 2004. She died in 2005.

Teofilo Garcia, gourd hatmaker

A GAMABA awardee of San Quintin Abra who have discovered and


popularized the durable Tabungaw hat out of enlarged upo or gourd. He
hollowed out the upo / tabungaw, varnished and polished it to make it more
durable and unique yellow sheen. In San Quintin, Abra, Teofilo Garcia would
often walk around town wearing his gourd casques. Through word of mouth
and his participation in the annual local harvest festival, Garcia was able to
introduce the Tabungaw plant as a good and sturdy material for functional,
elegant, and protective hats. He produces everything he needs — planting and
harvesting the gourds, splitting, and refining rattan for the lining, and weaving Nito and bamboo for accents
himself — and usually takes seven days to finish a hat. Awarded in 2012, he continues to experiment and
work on new designs.

Alonzo Saclag, traditional dancer and musician

A Kalinga of Lubuagan, Kalinga was awarded for his mastery of the Kalinga
dance and the performing arts. He was also recognized for his persistence to create
and nurture a greater consciousness and appreciation of Kalinga culture among the
Kalinga themselves and beyond their borders. It was through observation, time, and
experience — rather than education or training or any kind — that Alonzo Saclag of
Lubuagan, Kalinga mastered local musical instruments, along with dance patterns
associated with rituals. Some of these are rarely performed, but done so with special
purposes, whether it’s preparing for retaliation, a victorious vindication for the
community, or forging successful peace pacts. Saclag understands the importance of
his practice and is a strong advocate of passing on his knowledge and continuing the
use of traditional dress and adornments. His efforts have included formal education, reaching radio stations,
and the formation of the Kalinga Budong Dance Troupe. He was awarded in 2000.

Masino Intaray, chanter and musician

A Pala'wan of Brookes Point, Palawan. He was awarded for his exemplary skills in
basal or gong music ensemble. He was also recognized for his versatility as musician,
poet, epic chanter, and storyteller of the Kulilal and Bagit traditions of the Pala'wan. A
member of the Pala’wan tribe, musician and epic chanter Masino Intaray was a master
of the basal, a gong music ensemble played during rice cooking (tambilaw) and sharing
(tinapay) rituals, which gather the community as they serve offerings to Pala’wan rice
god Ampo’t Paray. Intaray also performed the Kulilal, a lyrical poem expressing love, accompanied by two-
stringed lute and bamboo zither, and the bagit, an instrumental piece about nature. His memory and
determination guided him in chanting through many successive nights, reciting epics, stories, myths of origin,
and the teachings of ancestors. Intaray, who was awarded in 1993, died in 2013.
