Lesson 1: Local Creation and Traditions/History of a Community for One’s Artwork

What’s In

During the first quarter, we have learned about silk weaving in Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, Indonesia and batik in Malaysia and Singapore. Silkworm is cultivated by Thai farmers to produce silk. Today, Thai silk making is one of the finest arts in the world because of its unique process and patterns and colors. Cambodian weaving used ikat technique in their textiles. They use natural dye from insect nest, indigo, prohut bark and ebony bark. Vietnam produces golden thread silk.

Same as Thailand, Vietnam also produces silk from silkworms. Some of their well-known fabrics are: Shantung taffeta, Bengaline weave and Ebony satin. Unlike Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam, Indonesia, Malaysia and Singapore produce fabric known as batik. This came from an Indonesian-Malay word ‘titik’ means point, dot or drop. This is the process of dyeing the cloth using the resist technique. Malaysian batik motif is associated with leaves and flowers and seldom uses human and animal because Islam standard prohibits the use of it. Batik designs are categorized into two: geometric motifs and free form.

Nowadays, batik design depends on the creativity of the designers. Batik are produced either hand painted or block printed. Singapore is also well-known for its statue, the Merlion.

What is It

What are the traditional arts and crafts of East Asia? The traditional arts and crafts of East Asian countries draw on its heritage and culture.

Countries in East Asia are rich in culture and traditions. Even local crafts are created based on their traditional techniques. Among these are painting and weaving.

Painting of East Asia

Painting started from prehistoric period. Early paintings were people and animals that were drawn on the walls of caves and stones. In East Asia, painting is an old type of art which is as old as the civilization of China. East Asian countries continued to influence each other’s production of arts over the centuries.

The objects or items that are usually put into paintings of East Asian countries are the following:

Country	Paintings, Subjects or Themes
China	1. Flowers and birds 2. Landscapes 3. Palaces and temples 4. Human figures 5. Animals 6. Bamboos and stones
Japan	1. Scenes from everyday life 2. Narrative scenes crowded with figures and details
Korea	1. Landscape paintings 2. Minhwa (the traditional folk painting) 3. Four gracious plants (plum blossoms, orchids or wild orchids, chrysanthemums, and bamboo) 4. Bamboo 5. Portraits

Gong-bi

Gong-bi is an ancient form of painting. It came from the Chinese word ‘gong jin’ which means ‘tidy’ (meticulous brush craftsmanship). This technique uses highly detailed brush strokes. Gong-bi originated in the forbidden city of Beijing, China. It was in Sung Dynasty where gong-bi Hua painting style has much flourished and reached its highest point in Chinese history.

Suiboku-ga (Japanese Painting Style)

Suiboku-ga or Sumi-e is a monochrome ink painting of Japanese people. Though they have this Sumi-e but the technique was first developed in China during the Sung Dynasty and brought to Japan by Zen Buddhists and monks in mid-14th century.

Architecture of East Asia

Most of East Asian countries’ architectural styles have a major influence from Chinese architecture. It emphasized the use of wood, relatively perishable but durable materials along with bricks and stones.

China

Chinese architecture is mainly timberwork. Wooden posts, beams, and trusses make up the framework of a house. Wooden walls serve as the separation of rooms without bearing the weight of the whole house. Roofs are usually made of timber and hard clay tiles that are designed to be attractive.

[illustration: large multi-roofed hall on a stone platform with crowds of people in front]

Japan

Japanese architecture has been characterized by wooden structures, elevated slightly off the ground, with hard clay tiled roofs and sometimes roofs are made of dried plant called thatch. Sliding doors (fusuma) were used in place of walls, allowing the internal configuration of a space to be customized for different occasions. Wood is always the first choice of materials in various forms such as planks, straw, tree bark, etc., for almost all structures. Stones are used for the building foundations.

Korea

Korean architecture is characterized by the artful combination of wood and stone to create elegant and spacious multi-roomed structures characterized by clay tile roofing, enclosures within protective walls, interior courtyards and the whole placed upon a raised platform. Buildings usually rise from a stone foundation to a curved roof covered with tiles. Walls are made of bricks sometimes totally composed of movable wooden doors.

East Asian Arts and Crafts (Weaving and Body Ornamentation)

East Asian arts and crafts play a very important role in their culture with its unique styles and forms. They are famous for their wide variety of arts and crafts with excellent workmanship.

Ikat Weaving and Dyeing

Asia demonstrates strong influences and tradition on arts. Aside from painting and architecture, weaving is also known in Asia like silk, batik and ikat.

The ancient art of Ikat (dyeing and weaving) was believed to have originated in India, Indonesia and Japan used to symbolize prosperity and high reputation.

Ikat (means tie, in Malay language it means ‘to bind’) is a dyeing technique used to pattern textiles. The yarns are being tied according to the desired pattern before dyeing. This method is used to resist or prevent the dye in covering the warp (lengthwise yarn) or weft (crosswise thread) thus creating a pattern prior to weaving.

Make-Up

East Asian countries have theatrical forms like Peking Opera of China and Kabuki of Japan. The performers usually paint faces depending on the character or personification they are portraying.

Jingju Lianpu or Peking Opera styles of face-painting are a traditional special way of make-up in Chinese operas in pursuit of the expected effect of performance. It is done with different colors in accordance with the performing characters’ personality and historical assessment. Roughly red-painted face means the loyalty, uprightness and courage of the character’s personality and characteristics. Blue-painted or green-painted face shows the truthfulness and dominance of the performing characters. White-painted face shows the performing character is the evil man or illicit official.

[photo: woman applying face makeup with a brush; two performers in Peking Opera costumes with painted faces]

A major part of Kabuki performance is the intense makeup worn by the actors. This makeup is applied heavily to create a brightly painted mask that uses colors in symbolic ways to indicate the age, gender and class of each character, as well as their moods and personalities. Each actor applies his own makeup. First, he applies oils and waxes on his face to help the makeup stick to the skin. Then a thick coat of white makeup made of rice powder called oshiroi is put on to cover the whole face. On this white face, red and black lines are used to outline the eyes and mouth.

[illustration: grid of eight faces showing different Kabuki makeup patterns]

Korean masks have a long tradition with the use in a variety of contexts. Masks of any type are called tal. These masks come with black cloth attached to the sides of the mask designed to cover the back of the head and also to pretend black hair. They were used in war, on both soldiers and their horses; ceremonially, for burial rites and for shamanistic ceremonies to drive away evil spirits and in the arts, particularly in ritual dances, courtly and theatrical plays.

Two types of Korean mask:

1. Religious masks – often used to ward off evil spirits
2. Artistic masks – mostly used in dances and theatre shows

What I Can Do

Activity 3: Let’s Weave It!

Directions: Make your own ikat weaving. Since we do not have available loom in our community, you will use the ‘baliw’ or ‘romblon’ for making mat. Make your own pattern based on the following design:

1. Table mats
2. Wall decoration mats

Materials:

• screw-pine leaves, romblon or buri
• dye (any color as desired)
• knife
• hammer or any object used as beater to soften the leaves

Note: You can use available materials that can be found in your locality following the same procedure.

Procedure:

1. Harvest as much as you want of the screw pines leaves.

   
   

   [photo: screw-pine plant with long spiky leaves growing among ground vegetation]

   
   

2. Remove the thorns from the leaf’s borders and center, separating the leaf into two halves.

   
   

   [photo: a person’s hands stripping a long leaf on the ground]

   
   

3. Allow two days for the leaves to dry in the sun.

   
   

4. When the leaves have dried, shred them into desired strands, bundle them and hammer or beat the bundled dried leaves with a beater. This procedure softens the leaves while also preventing the leaf strips from getting rigid and cracking.

   
   

   [photo: a person beating bundled leaves with a stick on the floor]

   
   

5. With a wooden shredder, shred the leaves into the desired thread.

   
   

6. To dye, combine the dye and water in a pot and bring to boil. Allow for 5-minute boil. Set aside the mixture and soak the leaves in the color of your choice, allowing them to dry in the sun for two days. Wrap, weft or double ikat can all be used. If you are a beginner, however, you might want to stick with wrap ikat.

   
   

7. Baliw/romblon/buri leaves are folded into two halves, with four strands folded in pairs in each set.

   
   

8. Begin weaving in the manner shown in the diagram. Support the strands with your foot as you weave. To avoid losing the strips, secure every side and end of the mat.

   
   

   [photo: dyed leaf strands bundled together on the floor]

   
   

9. Cut the extra strips when the desired size is obtained.
