The Gawad sa Manlilikha ng Bayan, or the
National Living Treasures Award, is conferred
on Filipinos who are at the forefront of the
practice, preservation, and promotion of the
nation’s traditional folk arts. Formalized in 1992,
through Republic Act No. 7355, the Manlilikha
ng Bayan Act. The National Commission for the
Culture and the Arts oversees its
implementation.

The following contextual elements that affect

the artwork.

1.THE ARTIST
The background of the artist may affect the
artwork that he creates. The culture, traditions,
economic status, gender, age, and other
external factors may inspire the artist when it
comes to artistic production.

3. THE ENVIRONMENT
While one’s environment (be it the quiet nature
or the busy city streets) can
be a great source of inspiration in creating an
artwork, it may also be the very
reason why the artwork is created in the first
place.

3.THE WAY OF LIFE

 Culture and tradition of the community may
affect the work of art. Further, the value and
possible functions of the artwork may be the
