What I Need to Know

Hello! How are you today? After our previous encounter in the past lesson, I am sure that you have realized how important the art elements are. Without those elements, it is difficult to appreciate a specific piece of work because those elements somehow serve as bases in understanding a piece of man’s creativity. From the colors and multiple incorporation of shapes and various textures, the art products of MIMAROPA and Visayas are truly a pride to honor.

This time, we will not be going anywhere far from here. We will still stick to our previous point of destination. Let us wander once again in the beautiful places of MIMAROPA and Visayas as we deal with the different principles of art and design.

Principles are the spring board and the guiding light of something. In all aspects, we consider its signifying role. Even in arts, the importance of principles cannot be taken for granted. These are the fundamental values that we follow as we observe consistency in the creation of aesthetics.

What’s New

ACTIVITY #1: QUESTION WALL

Directions: In the boxes below, kindly input the questions that you would like to have answers in the discussion to follow. Use separate sheet in your activity notebook.

[chart: question boxes; blank answer boxes labeled WHAT, WHEN, WH0 (printed as “WH0”), WHERE, and HOW]

transcriber’s note: the box label is printed as “WH0”, which may be a typo for “WHO”; transcribed as printed.

That one is easy, right? I hope that all the questions you wrote in the wall will be answered in our discussion. But before we completely get in there, let’s try to have this another activity below.

ACTIVITY #2: “AESTHETICS CHECK”

Directions: Observe the given picture. Note your observation and be ready to answer the questions that follow.

[chart: diagram; The 7 Principles of Art]

Labels printed on the diagram: Balance, Rhythm, Pattern, Emphasis, Contrast, Movement, Unity.

[illustration: a woman with short dark hair and sunglasses in a denim jacket, standing before rolling hills, with leaves and a cloud around her]

Thank you for being cooperative! It matters to me a lot. To enhance your critical thinking, please be guided by the following questions and try to answer them in a separate sheet in your activity notebook.

Processing Questions:

1. What observation do you have in the picture?
2. Can you name the different things you see in it?
3. What will happen if you remove some parts of this picture? Why?

That one is quite tough. Your observations are put into words and I admire you for your untiring participation. Now, bear with me as I tour you in our discussion.

What is It

[illustration: magnifying glass held in a hand]

Words to Ponder:

• Maranao are one of the indigenous tribes in Mindanao who are early settlers of Lake Lanao
• Ikat is a method of fabric dyeing with which the yarns are stringed tightly and dyed before weaving
• Sarimanok is the symbol of arts of Maranao which is carved design of a fowl with colourful wings and feathered tail with a fish on its beak
• T’boli are indigenous people living in and around Lake Sebu in South Cotabato

In everything that we do, we cannot do away from the fact that we need techniques, materials and style to enable us in achieving our target. Just like how we perform our daily tasks and assignments, arts also need techniques aside from materials and style. Principles are the underlying techniques per se. If the elements are visual tools, the principles are the guide on how something simple can be transformed into better ones.

Before we delve deeper, I want you to discover how these principles play their role in creating a well-balanced artwork.

I have prepared for you an activity called, Round D’ Craft.

ACTIVITY #3: “ROUND D’ CRAFT”

Directions: Below each circle is the principle that you have to work out with using Line and Color as your elements. Decorate each circle using the two specified elements mentioned above. You may opt to use separate sheet for your output.

Ready? Let’s do it!

[illustration: six blank circles arranged in two rows of three below a single circle at top, for decorating; the labels are printed under each circle]

Contrast

Movement Balance Rhythm

Pattern Emphasis Unity

This portion is quite challenging, right! I admire you for your active engagement. I am happy that we are getting there. Right now, let us try to do another activity.

ACTIVITY 4: “PICTURE THIS TEXT”

Directions: Kindly observe the given pictures on the left portion below. Afterwards, try to match each item with the definitive terms on the right. Write your answers in your activity notebook.

Column A	Column B
1. [illustration: building with arched windows beside a red and green panel] BALANCE	It refers to the dominance of a certain object in the art work and is often achieved by contrast.
2. [illustration: dark figure on a striped pink and green background] CONTRAST	It is the result of using the elements of art by commanding the viewer’s eye around the image.
3. [illustration: green and blue lines radiating from a central point] EMPHASIS	It refers to the non-uniform but organized repetition of the elements.
4. [illustration: colorful flowing shapes in red, pink, green and white] MOVEMENT	It refers to the varying distribution of the elements. It can be difference in color, shape and texture.
5. [illustration: grid of bow-tie shapes on colored squares] PATTERN	It refers to the harmony of the elements.
6. [illustration: vertical green wavy lines on a blue background] RHYTHM	It refers to the visual distribution or weight of the elements in the work of art
7. [illustration: sunset landscape with clouds and a dark shape over water] UNITY	It refers to the uniform repetition of any of the art element and its combination.

Well done! I am happy that you are able to match the principles with the definitions. With your knowledge in cracking the activities that you have just encountered, you are now ready to enter the discussion phase.

Come on now and read it with me.

When an artist decides doing something, it is always affected by culture and his own understanding of arts. But his understanding and culture alone cannot suffice the achievement of a successful interpretation. There must be a set of governing rules in the use of a specific material or element that will enable a successful manifestation of visual effect to the viewers. It is agreed that these principles are vital in the successful illustration of arts. Being unique in function, these underlying values play its inimitable role respectively.

Today, we will be dealing with the different principles of arts of MIMAROPA and Visayas in terms of architecture, daily objects, sculpture, fabric and body ornamentation.

The principles of art are the underlying support of the elements. While the elements are the visual tools, the principles of art reflect how the elements are to be used to create a work of art. The principles of art and design are balance, contrast, emphasis, movement, pattern, rhythm, and unity/variety.

The utilization of the different principles and elements of arts is still ruled by these important factors: the mood, the general message and/or idea where the different art products are anchored from.

Mood generally refers to the atmosphere or the feelings that an artwork evokes. You can basically tell the mood of an object by simply looking at the color and pattern. Because the eye is the window of the soul, the sensory images are transported to the brain that creates feelings toward a specific art beheld.

While the mood tells of the feelings upon looking at an art, message is simply what an art is all about. Message and/or idea tells of the purpose why an art is created, what is its use and how will it be of use to people. Message is whatever the artist intends it to mean, and this meaning is shaped by the materials, techniques, designs and forms it makes use of including ideas and feelings it creates that can be perceived by looking clearly at it.

One central feature of art is its ability to arouse emotion. That can be made possible through the proper and well-aligned combination of the elements and principles and the incorporation of the message and/or idea and mood.

THE PRINCIPLES OF ART MAGNIFIED…

Balance refers to the visual weight of the artwork. It is a sense that something is not giving discomfort to the eyes of the viewers. There are 3 kinds of balance.

1. Symmetry is a type of balance in which both sides of a composition have the same elements in the same position.
2. Asymmetry is a type of balance in which the composition is balanced due to the contrast of any of the elements of art. It can be perceived in the different sizes of circles with one which is smaller and the other one, bigger.
3. Radial symmetry is a type of balance in which elements are equally spaced like that of the bicycle wheel and the spokes.

[illustration: Miag-ao Church, a stone church with two towers beside the main building, drawn in grayscale]

Miag-ao Church

This is the Miag-ao Church. With two towers side by side the main building, the principle of balance is portrayed. Being asymmetrical, since the two towers were commissioned by two different priests at two different times, the different towers are still pleasing to the eyes. In this architecture, the two towers paved way to increase the aesthetics of the main façade which contains a variety of elements put together in the bas relief.

WORDS TO REMEMBER:

BAS RELIEF is a kind of carving or sculpture in which the figures are raised in a few inches from the flat background.

The church is decorated with a sculpted wall. Centered by a coconut tree that is portrayed as the tree of life where St. Christopher holds the Child Jesus, the remaining decors of the façade depicts the daily life of Miag-ao people and shows variety in the utilization of art elements.

[illustration: two-panel grayscale image, the exterior of an old stone church on the left and a corridor with pews and arched ceiling on the right]

Sablayan Church

Contrast is the difference between elements of art in a composition, such that each element is made stronger in relation to the other. When placed next to each other, contrasting elements command the viewer’s attention. The areas of contrast are among the first thing that the viewer’s eyes are drawn. Contrast can be achieved by placing objects together and creating contrasting effect.

Negative/Positive space is an example of contrast including the command of variety of colors.

This is the old church of Sablayan, Occidental Mindoro. Located at the foot of “Bundok Bayan”, at Barangay Poblacion. The old church is a 16th century antiquated legacy of the Spanish missionaries. Here, lime or “apog” is used as cement for walling. Some old folks believed that in the olden times, before the interior reconstruction of the church, there used to be underground dwellings for nuns and a tunnel at the back of the church that led to the lighthouse of the nearby mountain park.

The interior of the church portrays the principle of contrast beginning with the opposing colors of ceilings and floor, balanced out by the wall of decorative stones and white colored pillars and columns to project the height of the inside.

In this embroidery, the third principle highlighted is emphasis. It is when the artist creates an area of composition that is visually dominant and commands the viewer’s attention. This is often achieved by contrast.

[illustration: grayscale image of a circular flower motif at the center of a embroidered cloth with lines and borders]

Panubok

Panubok is one among the many definitions of Capisnon culture. Being the traditional embroidery of Panay-Bukidnon, this art that is rooted from their deep connection to the environment has shown how inspired their people are in creating their wonderful designs. This fabric, being inspired from nature has variety of incorporated designs but is centered by a colorful flower and adorned with lines and mixture of colors. The attention of the viewers is locked on the circular pattern of bright colors but the supporting details are embroidered right round it.

Movement is the result of using the elements of art where the eyes are commanded to move around the image. A sense of movement can be created by diagonal or curvy lines, either real or implied, by edges, by the illusion of space, by repetition and by energetic mark-making.

The known body decoration in Visayas is Pintados. Relived by their purpose of showing bravery and heroism, this practice of smearing the skin and inserting pigment to create an indelible design has long been a trademark of their culture. Since the tattooing surface is the skin of a human, the natural tendency is for every line and curve to follow the person’s anatomy and kinesthetics.

In this art, the lines painted in the bodies are causing the eyes of the viewers to create an illusion of movement.

[illustration: grayscale image of two figures seen from behind, their bodies covered in dark geometric tattoo designs]

Pintados

Rhythm is created by movement implied through the repetition of elements of art in a non-uniform but organized way. It is related to rhythm in music. Unlike pattern which demands consistency, rhythm relies on variety.

[illustration: grayscale image of a round covered jar with wavy designs and a boat figure on the lid]

Manunggul Jar

The cultural treasure found in the early 1960s in Manunggul, a part of the archaeologically significant Tabon Cave Complex in Lippun Palawan is one of the numerous jars found in a believed to be burial site. The design of this jar is unique in all aspects. The covering is designed with 3 objects: the soul, the boatman and the boat itself. The body, however, is designed with lines which is a depiction of the sea waves. This rhythmic design shows the maritime culture of the Filipinos; how one’s soul after he dies is being transported by boats in water and seas as they go to the afterlife. The lines in the jar body are non-uniform but are organized and clearly show a rhythmic flow.

Pattern is the uniformed repetition of any of the elements of art or any combination. Anything can be turned into a pattern through repetition.

Tingkop is one among the notable products of Tagbanua tribe in Palawan. It is a cone-shaped basket with a visibly – creative pattern in the outside that serves as its decorative design. This is made possible by an alternate placing of natural bamboo strips and blackened ones, thereby creating figures that are repeated similarly.

[illustration: grayscale image of a cone-shaped woven basket with a chevron pattern]

Tingkop

Living in the foothills of Malasimbo, Puerto Galera, the Iraya Mangyans are indigenous people of Oriental Mindoro who are known for their skills in nito-weaving. This craft has been a preserved tradition that dictates their unique culture and art. The tradition of nito weaving has been the primary source of their income as the vine called nito is easily found in the forest where they are living. This material is harnessed to provide use to their basketry and weaving. The diagonal pattern in the canister is only one among the many designs they make.

[illustration: cylindrical woven canister with a lid and a triangle pattern]

Nito

Another example of pattern is the most popular and still existing finished item of Ilo-ilo’s weaving industry, the patadyong or the wrap-around. To Panay weavers to which Ilo-ilo is a part, this patadyong is not only a fabric but is a parcel of Panayanon history and culture. The patadyong is a native tube-like skirt made from hablon clothing that is distinctly Ilonggo in color and character. The garment is made of diverse colored strips of cotton that has become their indigenous work of art.

[illustration: grayscale image of a rolled patadyong cloth with striped bands and star-like motifs]

Patadyong

Unity/Variety is present when you want an art to feel unified such that all the elements fit together comfortably. Too much unity creates monotony, too much variety creates disharmony. Both of these principles are needed for the areas of interest in your composition along with places for your eyes to rest.

[illustration: grayscale image of the front façade of Miag-ao Church with two watchtowers and a central bas-relief]

Façade of Miag-ao Church

The variety of elements in the façade of Miag-ao church consists of an ornately decorated bas-relief in the middle of two huge watchtower belfries on each side. The bas-relief is a mixed influence of Medieval Spanish, Chinese, Muslim and local traditions and elements, a unique characteristic of the church façade. A prominent part of the façade is a coconut tree depicted as the tree of life where St. Christopher holds on. The saint is dressed in local and traditional clothing carrying the Child Jesus on his back. The rest of the façade features the daily life of Miag-ao during that time including native flora (like papaya, coconut and palm tree) and fauna. Despite the various decorative designs in the façade, the tall coconut figure enables the eye to rest, thereby, creating unity in the sculpture.
