Sculpture …. the art of making three dimensional forms.

There are three basic methods of creating


sculpture:

Ukit or Wood Carving
➢ A form of craft on wood by
mean of incising designs
with a knife or subtracting
parts of the material wood
with a chisel or mallet on
chisel for hard type.

➢ Bulul was originally cared


for rites of ancestral worship
and intercession
Metal Craft
Metal forging uses the traditional
Southeast Asian double-forger, and
employs traditional tools. Other forms
of metalwork include hand shaping
and pounding of metal sheets, a
laborious method which transforms
flat metal sheets into sturdy, solid
objects such as the Maranao kulintang
ensemble and gong instruments.
➢ Casting
Kulintang Ensemble
➢ Cold-casting
Metal Craft
Casting is a process of forming
three-dimensional duplicates by
using molten material to solidify in
a mold made from an original art.

“Lost wax” is a method often used


in metal such as bronze for
sculpture or silver and gold for
jewelry. It involves heat to replace
the wax with the final metal
material of the finished object.

Architecture The creative conceptualization
of graphic descriptions of a
building (building plans) or
blueprints that address a set of
design objectives, which
considers materials,
construction techniques, and
instructions to successfully
translate the concept of the
architect into built form.

Plant-based Materials
Wood or timber, bamboo,
rattan, leaves, and fibers are abundant in
historical architecture because of their
availability and readiness-of-use from the
immediate surroundings.
These materials can be
favorable for their compressive or flexural
strength, resistance to degradation, or
case of processing for construction.
Traditional building designs considered
protection against the environment
while keeping interiors cool.
Masonry
Refers to building with small
building units like concrete hollow
block, brick or stone, with mortar or
palitada as a bonding agent.

Adobe, a greyish to brown volcanic


tuff, was used in Manila and nearby
provinces, from Batangas to Tarlac.
Structures in Albay and Sorsogon
were constructed of cut lava stone
or volcanic rock.
Metals
Extracted from mined
minerals from the earth.
Commonly used metals include
bronze, brass, aluminum, cast iron,
and tin.
They are favorable for their
durability and strength, which are
retained even when formed into
complex shapes. For this reason,
metal is used in piping, roofing and
windows.
Glass
Made of silicates or sand, and
oxides fused at high temperatures.
Oxides and other substances
control color and opacity. Though
fragile, glass has excellent
transparency and good resistance
for weather and chemicals.
Composite Materials
Made by combining two or
more materials with different
properties which result in
unique combinations of their
properties.
