Arts 7 Quarter 2 Module 2: Architectures, Sculptures and Everyday Objects in MIMAROPA and Visayas

This is the Grade 7 Arts self-learning module for Quarter 2, Module 2: “INTRINSIC DESIGN: An Access to a High Quality of Life – Architectures, Sculptures and Everyday Objects in MIMAROPA and Visayas.” It follows Module 1, which covered the attire, fabrics, crafts, and accessories of the same regions. By the end, learners can recognize and describe well-known buildings, statues, and crafted objects from MIMAROPA and Visayas, and show what they learned through a jingle or rap.

The module was developed by DepEd MIMAROPA Region as an Alternative Delivery Mode (ADM) resource (First Edition, 2020). It is written as a game: every correct answer earns one point, and learners climb ranks from Warrior (1 to 10 points) up to Mythical Glory (111 points and up).

What learners will learn

The module targets this learning competency (A7EL-IIa-2): the learner identifies the characteristics of arts and crafts in specific areas in MIMAROPA and Visayas, such as Marinduque (Moriones masks), Palawan (Manunggul Jar), Mindoro (Hanunuo Mangyan writing, basketry, and weaving), Bohol (churches), Cebu (furniture), Iloilo (culinary arts and old houses), and Samar (Basey mats).

By the end of the module, learners should be able to:

  • recognize architectures, sculptures, and everyday objects in MIMAROPA and Visayas;
  • determine their characteristics; and
  • appreciate the beauty and uniqueness of these arts and crafts by composing a jingle or rap that describes them.

Architecture in MIMAROPA and Visayas

The module defines architecture as the art of designing and constructing, judged by three pillars: function (how the building is used), structure (how it stands and what materials are used), and beauty (its visual appeal).

Key ideas from the lesson:

  • Churches, fortresses, bahay na bato (stone houses), theaters, and other buildings began to be built during the Spanish colonization. Forts and garrisons were built to protect Spanish colonial territories.
  • Architectura mestiza combines a wooden upper floor with a stone ground floor in a two-storey house, so the house can survive an earthquake.
  • Builders used adobe stone, coral limestone, and bricks. Church ornaments mixed Classical, Romanesque, Gothic, Baroque, Rococo, and Mudejar styles with local motifs.
  • Vernacular architecture is the simplest way of building a house using indigenous materials, like the homes of indigenous peoples raised on wooden posts.

Sculptures and everyday objects

A sculpture is a three-dimensional artwork. The module names four techniques:

  • Modeling: shaping an elastic material.
  • Additive (assemble): building up or adding material.
  • Casting: pouring a liquid material into a mold.
  • Subtractive (carve): scraping away parts of a material.

Sculptures featured include the Mangyan and Tamaraw Statue (Calapan City), the Battle of Pulang Lupa monument (Torrijos, Marinduque), the Jose Rizal Monument (Looc, Romblon), the Morion mask of Marinduque used during the Lenten season, the hardwood Tau Tau statue of Palawan that guards tombs, the bronze Lin-ay Sang (Lady of Iloilo), and the bronze Eugenio Daza y Salazar Monument in Borongan, Eastern Samar.

Everyday objects are things used in daily life, described by their materials and functions:

  • Tabuyo (Mindoro): made of nito, for decoration and storage.
  • Pearl of Palawan: used for jewelry and souvenirs.
  • Mortar and pestle (Romblon): marble kitchen tool, also a souvenir.
  • Guitar of Cebu (Lapu-Lapu City): made of jackfruit, narra, ebony, and imported woods.
  • Capiz (kapis) candle holder (Panay island).

How to use this module

The module has one lesson, worked through in this order:

  1. What I Know: a 15-item pretest.
  2. What’s In: a review of Module 1 (draw a cover art and describe its arts and crafts).
  3. What’s New: “Crack the Square” (decode 20 names by crossing out Q, X, and V) and “Classify Me.”
  4. What is It: the discussion above.
  5. What’s More: Spot the Difference (Bancuro vs. Miag-ao churches), Describe Me Please, and Fill Me Up Please.
  6. What I Have Learned: a written reflection.
  7. What I Can Do: “Hala Bira! Tara na sa Visayas at MiMaRoPa” (Let’s go to Visayas and MIMAROPA), a jingle or rap graded on composition, content, and timeliness.
  8. Assessment and Additional Activities (“Three-Duo” comparison diagrams).

Learners: write all answers in your notebook, not on the module, and keep count of your points. Record your jingle or rap with a phone and send it, along with the Three-Duo output, to your facilitator through Messenger, e-mail, or another platform. Parents: help your child find a device for recording and remind them to use the answer key honestly. Teachers: the answer key covers Crack the Square, the pretest, and the assessment; set a submission date, since timeliness is part of the rubric.

Philippine architecture is a heritage of the country from its colonizers. Well-known historic structures in the country are from the Spanish Colonial period and is additionally influenced by Japanese, Malay, Hindu, Chinese, and American cultures.

Sculpture is another area of arts in which artists are so passionate about. Before the Spanish colonization, Filipino carvers created sculptures of their traditional gods (anito).

Aside from the above-mentioned areas, various artists have explored certain everyday objects and turned them into functional and iconic figures through their skills, talents, and use of tools.

People from MIMAROPA and Visayas indeed have creative hands. With the local materials available in their locality, they are able to create such products as outer manifestation of their gift and skills.

In this module, you will find out the intrinsic designs from various architectures, sculptures and everyday objects which give MIMAROPA and Visayas an access to a high quality of life.

As you go along with this module, you will crack/ decode, classify, differentiate and describe the different architectures, sculptures and everyday objects of MIMAROPA and Visayas.

Great! How many points have you gained in this activity? _______

Wow, that is good to hear! Let us address your experience in the activity as you answer the following questions in your notebook.

  1. What factors did you consider in classifying the pictures?
  2. What is the most challenging part of the activity? Why?

What is It

According to Professor Gerard Lico in his video clip published on YouTube, the construction of churches, fortresses, bahay na bato, accessoria, theatre and fabrica started during the Spanish colonization that a writer of Arkitekturang Pilipino (2008) also states. Garrison and fortress were built to protect the Spanish colonial territories. Architectura mestiza, a combination of wooden frame and stone wherein the upper level of a two-storey house was made of woods and the ground level with stones to survive an earthquake, also began. During that time, adobe stone, coral limestone, and bricks were used in constructions. Indigenous motifs with European Style were used in churches while the ornaments were based on Classical, Romanesque, Gothic, Baroque, Rococo, and Mudejar style combined with the local/tropical motifs which are visible in some of the churches in Visayas.

However, architecture is not just about fortress, stone-made houses, and heritage churches. Even the houses of our indigenous people are products of architecture known as vernacular. Wooden posts are used to elevate the house with attached roof and gable ornaments.

Words to Ponder:

  1. Motif means a decorative pattern or design of a certain architecture.
  2. Classical style comprises conventional forms, remarkably columns with fixed proportions and ornaments.
  3. Romanesque style is characterized by grandeur, drama and contrast in lighting.
  4. Gothic style in an architecture is characterized by having pointed arches, taller and delicate building buildings with thinner walls with a structure built against the wall for support.
  5. Baroque style has combined features of semi-circular arches with thick walls, large towers and decorative arcade.
  6. Rococo style/ Late Baroque is characterized by intricate ornamentation, asymmetrical values, pastel color and curved lines.
  7. Mudejar style is a combination of Romanesque, Gothic and Renaissance.
  8. Vernacular architecture is the simplest way of constructing/ building a house using indigenous materials.
ARCHITECTURE

Architecture is the art of designing and constructing. It can be characterized by its function, structure and beauty. These three pillars serve as bases whether to consider building an architecture or not.

The pillars are defined as the following:

✓ Function refers to how the building is used or its purpose.

✓ Structure states how a building stands and what materials are used.

✓ Beauty shows the visual or physical appeal.

Let us take a look at some of the beautiful architectures from MIMAROPA and Visayas.

I hope you had an exciting exploration of the different architectures of MIMAROPA and Visayas. This time, let us go through the next one.

SCULPTURE

Sculpture combines hard materials such as marble, metal, glass or wood or plastic materials to form a three-dimensional artwork. There are four techniques of creating a sculpture namely modeling, additive (assemble), casting, and subtractive (carve).

The techniques are defined as the following:

  • ✓ Modeling – to shape an elastic material to form a sculpture


  • ✓ Additive (Assemble) – to build up, to assemble, or to add a certain material to form a sculpture


  • ✓ Casting – to make a mold and then pour a liquid material such as molten metal, plastic, fiberglass or rubber into the mold to form a sculpture


  • ✓ Subtractive (Carve) – to shape any material into something by scraping away some portions of it to form a sculpture
