    Prior knowledge (Guide Questions)


    1. Define art. Can you differentiate sining from art?
    o Art is defined as anything that was made with vision and talent, is attractive, and
    conveys important ideas, feelings, or thoughts. The word sining, is a word in
    which most of the Filipino authors typically use as a synonym for the English
    term "art," yet the two terms do not signify the same idea. As according what I
    have researched, authors consulted two dictionaries, one from 1860 and another
    from 1914, sining, and they found out that the word sining originally meant
    "reflection" or "meditation," and it has the ethereal character of a mental exercise.
    It's a method of accomplishing things. Another part of sining is the ability to
    execute minute details with finesse. Often used in association with the term likha,
    which means "creation," likhang sining may be defined as "a product of careful
    thought or reflection."
    2. Have you heard of the art vs. crafts controversy? Why are indigenous masterpieces
    sometimes referred to as merely crafts?
    o Indigenous communities may be found across the Philippines. These
    neighborhoods have their own distinctive arts and crafts be it visual arts, singing
    and dancing, handicrafts, embroideries and textiles. Unfortunately, these
    masterpieces are slowly being lost and some outsiders have "downgraded" them
    to just crafts or handicrafts that is fit to be sold in tourist souvenir shops, and
    sadly indigenous artists are not being appreciated. (This is referred to as the art vs.
    crafts debate) (Racette and Robertson, 2009). I think the reason why indigenous
    masterpieces are downgraded is because indigenous arts aren’t integrated with our
    curriculum that is why these beautiful creations are not given the credits and
    praise that it truly deserves.
    3. What are the distinct characteristics of Philippine indigenous arts and crafts?
    o The materials usually used when making indigenous arts and crafts are raw
    materials such as wood, fruit, and vegetable extracts. Native Philippine art reflects
    the indigenous way of life of Filipinos which makes it unique.
