28 AND SHE DREW IT IN A NUTSHELL: The Art of Bernadette Solina-Wolf

South Luzon Association of Museums (SLAM) and NHCP

This exhibit is going to be a visual discourse on the diversity of Filipino culture. Against a very unconventional canvas, Wolf will draw fragments of Filipino life. The exhibit will deal with two opposite ends of our cultural milieu, the indigenous and what became the Filipino life as a colony. Transforming the utilitarian coconut into fine art makes Bernadette Solina-Wolf’s works distinctive. An artist by profession, she started painting on coconut shell in 2006 as a consignee at the Ayala Museum. A collaborative work with his husband, a German Engineer, she has to this date created 1, 200 paintings that uses German technology to sustain her art in her chosen medium, the bao.

36 Art of Mat Weaving (Workshop and Lecture)

NHCP The Santa Bajaus from Tawi-Tawi are distinguished for their mat-weaving talents. However, the most of these people are already displaced and have migrated to various landlocked provinces in the Philippines. Such displacement contribute to cultural degradation. It is unfortunate that some younger generations of Sama Badjau have grown accustomed in begging in the streets and no longer have knowledge of their history, culture, and tradition. In line with the National Indigenous Peoples Month, a workshop on mat weaving will be held as an effort to sustain and promote Badjau history and livelihood tradition. Moreover, a lecture will present the issue of cultural degradation in the age of technology. Workshop Facilitator: Sama Badjau weaver or weaver from Baler

artworks to be produced will serve as interlocutor of signs of the new influences in the constant shifting of language, such as emergent subcultures, gender expansion, topographies, class consciousness, etc. As image-makers, the artists’ task is to draw on their intrinsic ability to manipulate what they see into being imageries of what they are, in the context of what they may mean. The exhibition would also like to stimulate the artists to present photographs in a trandisciplinal mode to highlight the medium’s ephemeral nature and fluctuating role as source of information. The discourse that will emerge from the mingling of these sets of languages/images will be intermediated by the curatorial, but the ultimate meaning-making will rely on the viewer.

NHCP Weapons served as the natives’ defense against the colonizers. Filipino traditional weaponry is as diverse as the different indigenous groups throughout the archipelago. The use of weaponry in Philippine history transformed through time, from bladed weapons to revolvers, to modern guns of the 20th century. This lecture will highlight the evolution of the use of weapons in the Philippines in the advent of colonialism, the 1896 Revolution, the Philippine-American War, and the Second World War. It will also discuss the responses of Filipinos to colonial rule and wars. Proposed speaker: Raul Roland Sebastian, Polytechnic University of the Philippines
