What is It

Brief History of Indonesian Folk Arts

The arts of Indonesia are many,

especially Indonesian paintings which are

unique works of art. A long-standing tradition

of sculpture can also be seen in the art and

culture of Indonesia, some dating back to the

Bronze and Iron Ages. Examples of

sculpture illustrating the story of the life of

Buddha can be seen in the temples of the 8th

and the 10th century. Indonesia’s art and

culture is also famous for their unique batik,

ikat and songket cloth which is even popular

today.

Fabric Design

Here are examples of their fabric

Batik is an Indonesian-Malay word, believed

to be related to the Malay word titik, which means

“point”, “dot”, or “drop”. The “drop” action

refers to the process of dyeing the fabric by making

use of resist technique: covering areas of cloth with

a dye-resistant substance (usually hot wax) to

prevent them from absorbing colors.

There are two categories of batik designs:

Geometric design Free form design

Page 14: Quarter 1 Module 4 - ASNHS

8

Modern batik designs depend on the creativity of their designers. Naturalistic

motifs like leaves, flowers, and birds have been utilized to create elaborate and

intricate designs.

Arts and Crafts

Shadow puppetry is famous in Indonesia.

Wayang, in modern Indonesian language means

“show” o “perform”. “Kulit” means “skin”, a

reference to the leather material that the figures are

carved out of. Others say that wayang is also

attributed to the Indonesian word bayang which

means “shadow”.

Wayang Kulit is a type of puppet shadow

play performed around the Indo-Malayan

archipelago, tracing its origins to India. It is derived

from a Javanese Hindu-Buddhist tradition, where

hand-crafted leather puppets depict epic stories of

the Gods in shadow play.

Sculpture

Indonesia is known for its stone,

bronze, and iron-age arts. The sculptures can

be found in numerous archaeological sites in

Sumatra, Java to Sulawesi.

Brief History of Indonesian Folk Arts

The culture of Malaysia draws on

the varied cultures of the different people

of Malaysia. The first people to live in the

area were indigenous tribes that still

remain; they were followed by the

Malays, who moved there from mainland

Asia in ancient times. Traditional

Malaysian art is mainly centered on the

crafts of carving, weaving, and

silversmithing. Traditional jewelry was

made from gold and silver adorned with

gems, and, in East Malaysia, leather and

beads were used to the same effect.

Fabric Design

In Malaysia, the states of Kelantan and Terengganu are considered the cradle

where batik first flourished, reaching even Singapore’s shores. There are two main

types of batik that are produced there:

1. Hand painted – the artist uses the canting, a

small copper container with one or more

different-sized pipes.

2. Block printed – is done by welding together

strips of metal to form a metal block. The metal

block is then dipped into molten wax and

pressed against the fabric to make a pattern.

Page 16: Quarter 1 Module 4 - ASNHS

10

Arts and Crafts

Wau kite – in Malay is a uniquely designed

Malaysian kite. Its wings are similar to an Arabic

letter (pronounced “wow”). This kite-making

tradition comes naturally to Malaysian people,

especially in the Eastern Malayan Peninsula.

Sculpture

Most of Malaysia’s sculptures are relief. These

are partially carved into another surface. These

sculptures rely on a base to support them and are a

combination of both three and two-dimensional art

forms.

Relief sculpture is practiced today by artists

and architects, done with stone, marble, bronze, and

many other substances. There are three main types of

relief sculptures:

1. Alto form – is almost completely carved from its surface, highly shaped, with

little of the structure touching if the base or plane will remove.

2. Bas form –These are common as wall decorations on Greek or Roman

buildings and are the type mostly seen on the Coliseum.

3. Sunken relief sculpture – an image that is carved into the surface rather than

out of it.

Relief wood carvings frequently adorn the doors, walls,

and windows of traditional Malay houses. Popular motifs of

such relief carvings are the various kinds of Malaysian

flowers and plants. These carvings require a high degree of

skill, patience, and determination.

Page 17: Quarter 1 Module 4 - ASNHS

11

Brief History of Thailand Folk Arts

Traditional Thai art is primarily

composed of Buddhist art and scenes from

the Indian epics. Traditional Thai sculpture

almost exclusively depicts images of the

Buddha, being similar with the other styles

from Southeast Asia, such as Khmer. Thai art

was influenced by indigenous civilizations of

the Mon and Khmer.

Fabric Design

Thai silk is produced from the cocoons

of Thai silkworms. It is mainly produced in

Khorat which is the center of the silk industry

in Thailand. Thai weavers from this region

raise the caterpillars on a steady diet of

mulberry leaves. Today, it is considered to be

one of the finest arts in the world, a product of

a unique manufacturing process and bearing

unique patterns and colors.

Arts and Crafts

Flying lanterns are made out of rice

paper with a bamboo frame, which contain a

fuel cell or small candle, when the fuel cell is

lit; the flame heats the air inside the lantern,

causing the lantern to rise. Once airborne, the

sky lantern will rise until the fuel cell or candle

stays alight. In Thailand, flying lanterns are

used during the year for festivals, the most

popular being the Loy Krathong Festival.

This festival is held on the night of the 12th full

moon, usually in November.

Sky lanterns or wish lanterns as they are also commonly known have become

popular on the main tourist beaches of Phuket. You will find locals selling wish lanterns

for a small cost.

Page 18: Quarter 1 Module 4 - ASNHS

12

Sculpture

Thailand is world-famous for its

sculpture that dates back 4,000 years. The

most used materials are wood, stone, ivory,

clay, and various metals. The most notable

sculptures are the Thai bronzes famous for

their originality and grace. This famous

sculpture in Wat Pho in Bangkok is 46 meters

long and 15 meters high. It is made of plaster

on a brick core and finished in gold leaf. The

feet are inlaid with mother of pearl.

Brief History of Cambodia Folk Arts

The history of visual arts in

Cambodia stretches back

centuries to ancient crafts; Khmer

art reached its peak during the

Angkor period. Traditional

Cambodian arts and crafts include

textiles, non-textile weaving,

silversmithing, stone carving,

lacquerware, ceramics, wat

murals, and kite-making. After the

collapse of the empire these and

other sites were abandoned and overgrown, allowing much of the era's stone carving

and architecture to survive to the present day. Traditional Cambodian arts and crafts

include textiles, non-textile weaving, silversmithing, stone carving, lacquer ware,

ceramics, watt murals, and kite-making.

Fabric Design

Silk weaving in Cambodia dates to as early

as the first century since textiles were used for

trading. Modern textiles have traces of motifs

imitating clothing details on ancient stone

sculptures.

Page 19: Quarter 1 Module 4 - ASNHS

13

There are two main types of Cambodian weaving:

1. Ikat technique (Khmer term: chongkiet)

– to create patterns, weavers tie and dye

portions of weft yarn before weaving

begins.

2. Uneven twill – it yields single or two-

color fabrics, which are produced by

weaving three threads so that the color

of one thread dominates on one side of

the fabric, while the two others

determine the color on the reverse side.

Cotton textiles have also played a significant role in Cambodian culture. Krama,

the traditional check scarves worn almost universally by Cambodians, is made of

cotton.

Arts and Crafts

Handicrafts are part of their traditional culture and their livelihood as they

produce textiles, baskets, jars, pottery and other tools for their daily use. The

handicrafts sector provides vital employment opportunities to most indigenous artisans

and disadvantage people.

Sculpture

The art of stone carving has flourished

in Cambodia for many thousands of years.

From small statues to the breathtaking

carvings found at Angkor Wat, this art

medium has become on of the country’s most

cherished art forms.

Stone carving has been both a passion

and a livelihood for many Cambodian

sculptors. The art of stone carving in

Cambodia has a very long, fascinating history

back to the foundation of the Khmer nation.

Page 20: Quarter 1 Module 4 - ASNHS

14

Brief History of Singapore Folk Arts

Singaporean art embraces far more

aspects. Absorbing the many cultures that

made up its society, the country developed an

eclectic collection of art form that made up its

society. What makes the Singaporean art more

distinctive is its merging of the recognized

European with the symbolism in beauty of Asia.

Works of notable artists and other masterpieces

to be displayed in the Singaporean National

Gallery will embody the unique and cultural

heritage of the country.

Fabric Design

In Singapore, the existence and use of batik has been recorded since the 12th

century but has receded in popularity through the years. Nowadays, batik is featured

in as the uniform of light attendants for the official flag carrier airlines of Singapore,

Indonesia, and Malaysia.

Arts and Crafts

The Songkok (also called peci or kopiah) is a cap

widely worn in Indonesia, Brunei, Malaysia, Singapore, the

southern Philippines, and southern Thailand, mostly among

Muslim males in formal gatherings

Sculpture

The Sri Mariammam Hindu temple

with sculptures of different images is almost as

old as Singapore itself. This was constructed

and dedicated to the goddess Mariammam

who is worshipped for her power to cure

disease.

Page 21: Quarter 1 Module 4 - ASNHS

15

Brief History of Laos Folk Arts

The visual, dramatic, musical, and

literary arts of Laos draw primarily from

religious and local traditional sources.

However, in contemporary times many

towns—especially those along the

Mekong River—have been exposed to

other cultures and traditions, largely

through Thai mass media. In the south,

Khmer influences on the peoples of Laos

are strong; in the north, Myanmar and Thai

influences are readily apparent. As elsewhere in Southeast Asia, religious symbols,

stories, and themes have been modified and localized. The snake, for example,

representations of which adorn religious and royal buildings, symbolizes the

benevolent spirit of the water and the protector of the king.

Fabric Design

According to Lao tradition, stories were weaved

in the intricate dense patterns and motifs of textiles.

Most diverse of these stories are the ones woven into

a Sihn – the Lao women’s ankle-long skirt patterns are

unique to each skirt.

Arts and Crafts

In this country, they make paper by hand in the wider region for over 700 years

using the bark of the local Sa or mulberry tree. The bark is crushed and soaked in

water until it dissolves into a paste. The liquid is then scooped out, poured through a

bamboo sieve and finally placed in a thin layer on a bamboo bed and dried in the sun.

Sa paper was used for calligraphy and for making festive temple decorations,

umbrellas, fans and kites. Here are the examples of Sa paper:

Page 22: Quarter 1 Module 4 - ASNHS

16

Sculpture

Lao artisans use a variety of media in their sculptural creations. Typically, the

precious metals such as bronze, silver, and gold are used. The most famous statue

made of gold is the Phra Sai of the sixteenth century. Another famous sculpture in

Laos is the Phra Bang which is also cast in gold. It is traditionally believed that relics

of the Buddha are contained in the image.

Brief History of Vietnam Folk Arts

Vietnamese art encompasses art

created in Vietnam or by Vietnamese

artists, from ancient times to the present.

Vietnamese art has a long and rich history.

Clay pottery of the Neolithic Age dates as

far back as 8,000 B.C.E. Decorative

elements from ceramics of the Bronze Age

were used to ornament large, elaborately-

incised bronze cast drums of the Dong Son

culture that flourished in North Vietnam

(from about 1,000 B.C.E. to the fourth

century B.C.E.). Scenes of everyday life

depicted on these drums show that textiles

of the Dong Son culture were highly

developed. During a thousand years of Chinese domination starting in the second

century B.C.E.Vietnamese art absorbed many Chinese influences, which continued

even after Vietnam became independent from China in the tenth century C.E..

However, Vietnamese art has always retained many distinctively Vietnamese

characteristics.

Phra Sai Phra Bang

Page 23: Quarter 1 Module 4 - ASNHS

17

Fabric Design

Golden thread silks were born in Vietnam. Many of our Vietnamese fabrics

originated from Ha Dong, the center of weaving and sericulture (silkworm production),

old jacquard looms are still used. Some popular Vietnamese fabric ranges are:

1. Shantung taffeta – is slightly thinner and less

irregular. Often used for bridal gowns.

2. Bengaline weave – is a great looking, thick

grained taffeta. It is durable plain weave fabric

that is characterized by widthwise cords formed

by using fine warp yarns and course weft yarns.

3. Ebony satin – all-natural lustrous silk hand-

woven in southern Vietnam and naturally dyed

using ebony fruit pods. It was revitalized by the

designer Vo Viet Chung.

Arts and Crafts

Vietnamese silk painting is one of the most popular forms of art in Vietnam,

favoured for the mystical atmosphere that can be achieved with the medium.

Sculpture

Vietnamese sculpture has been heavily influenced by the three traditional

religions: Taoism, Confucianism, and Buddhism, which come from neighbouring

countries, China, and India. Among the famous sculpture are the 10,000-year-old

carvings which can be seen on the Dong Noi cave.

Page 24: Quarter 1 Module 4 - ASNHS

18

Brief History of Brunei Folk Arts

Brunei Darussalam is richly

endowed with a cultural heritage that the

government and the people have worked

tirelessly to maintain. The nation’s Arts and

Handicraft Centre, for example, is a living

testimony to the preservation and the

proliferation of the arts and crafts for which

Brunei was once renowned, including boat

making, silver-smithing, bronze tooling,

weaving and basketry. Visitors will also

find Malay weaponry, wood carvings,

traditional games, traditional musical instruments, silat (the traditional art of defense)

and decorative items for women to be some of Brunei’s most unique cultural

offerings.The introduction of Islam, of course, also dramatically changed Brunei’s

cultural landscape, adding its own distinct artistic forms.

Fabric Design

Brunei’s traditional textile is also called batik but it is uniquely different from

Indonesia, Malaysia, and Singapore. Its designs have their national flower simpur,

sumboi-sumboi (pitcher plant) and Brunei’s traditional design of air mule.

Batik can be done in four ways:

1. Hand-drawn 2. Using metal block

3. Screen printing 4. Digital printing

Page 25: Quarter 1 Module 4 - ASNHS

19

Arts and Crafts

Songkok (also called peci or kopiah) is a cap widely worn in Brunei. In Brunei

Darussalam, men’s headgears are categorized into three:

1. Dastar – which is a piece of cloth tied around

the head.

2. Songkok or Kopiah – a type of cap made from

velvet.

3. Tangkolok or serban – which resembles as

turban and is a typical headdress in the Middle

East.

Sculpture

Sculpture in Brunei takes on a

more utilitarian role than an aesthetic

one. The people of Brunei have along

tradition as excellent craftsmen using

bronze and silver to create adornments

and functional items such as bowls, tools

and the like.Sculpting is one art form

that is not yet widely practiced in Brunei.

What I Have Learned

Importance of Arts and Crafts

There is no doubt that arts and crafts are fun activities for students. There are

several arts and crafts activities, which can enhance the interest of the students

and exploit their artistic potential.

By introducing arts and crafts to the learners and involving them in such

activities in schools, you will invest in building their cognitive, physical, and

social development.

These are following benefits of Arts and Crafts:

Arts and crafts activities can enhance the learner’s dexterity and agility. With

the enhancement of fine motor skills and much practice, a child’s manual

dexterity, artistic skills, and speed will also increase.

In social benefits, through arts and craft, learners learn to value and appreciate

artifacts and images across cultures and times. Experience in design, art, and

crafts enable them to reflect critically on their own work and those by others.

They learn to act and think like designers and artists, working intelligently and

creatively. They also learn about the preservation of heritage through art. A lot

of the information we have now about people that lived millions of years ago

came solely from art. Participating, with other students in art class, gives

student a chance to interact with others while sharing common interests. The

process of arts and crafts also strengthens parent-child bonding.

The learner will learn to make correct and effective decisions by facing and

solving artistic challenges. This helps to develop a problem-solving attitude,

which in turn, will help them in the future.

Making arts and crafts not only help in the above traits but also in boosting

academic performance. Above all these are activities in this module filled with

lots of fun for learners.

1. Heat water in a pot on your cooker or stove to a little more than 60° C (140° F),

and then put it in an old bowl. Use one bowl for each color.

2. Dissolve the color powders into the hot water and stir.

3. If you like, put some vinegar into the water. Vinegar makes the fabric more

receptive and the colors more durable.

4. Make knots in your fabric. You can make as many as you want or get as fancy

as you like.

5. Put your knotted fabric into the dyed water and leave it in it as long as you need

or want. The duration really depends on how light or dark you want your batik

to be, but keep in mind that wet colors always look darker.

6. Take your fabric out and put it in an empty bowl where it can lose rest of the

colored water for a moment. Put it then on a drying rack and let it all dry.

7. A soon as your fabric is dry you can open up the knots. You could also try to

open the knots earlier – compare your results.

8. Iron your dried fabric. Then you should wash it out softly, by hand. Dry it again

and iron it again.
