1. Based on the video presentation on Activity 1 or based on the pictures in

Activity 2 describe the artworks of the Southeast Asian countries in forms of
styles, designs, shapes and characteristics.
2. Did the following artworks have similarities or differences? Cite your answer.
Southeast Asian Art

2200 BC – Present
Several external causes have shaped and influenced Southeast Asian

societies. On the one hand, they have been historically overshadowed by nearby India
and China's great empires, and on the other, they have been colonized and
suppressed by a variety of different nations, all with their own cultures and
languages, as in Vietnam and the French, the Dutch in Indonesia, and the
Americans, English, Portuguese, and Spanish in other regions and countries.
Southeast Asia thus has a background of common influences on the one hand, and
completely different influences on the other.
What is It
You have done watching about the arts and crafts, fabric and fabric design,
and sculpture of the artworks of the Southeast Asian countries. Are you amazed with
their forms and characteristics? What comes on your mind while watching the video?
Did they differ or they are just totally the same? To further understand on the
similarities and differences of the Southeast Asian arts, a brief discussion is
explained in this content. So let the journey begin!
The climates in Southeast Asia are similar in terms of being warm and damp.
The region has a wide range of cultural influences. Its inhabitants speak a variety of
unconnected languages that use a variety of alphabets. There are several sects of
Buddhism, Islam, and Christianity, as well as other religious traditions such as
Hinduism, therefore there are characteristics that are shared by Southeast Asian
nations.
Southeast Asian Art Origins and Historical Importance
Thailand
Thai art is greatly influenced by Buddha

legends and Indian epics, with sculpture virtually
entirely dedicated to the Buddha. Stories about the
Buddha's former births, his life, and Thai
adaptations of Buddhist narratives based on Thai
folklore are prominently featured.
In the Sukhothai period, Buddhist sculpture

is beautifully depicted in statues of the Buddha Sukhothai period Buddhist
with smooth oval faces emphasizing the Buddha's sculpture
spiritual nature. They based the Buddha's
appearance on Pali writings that stated that he has "skin so flawless that dust cannot
adhere to it," "legs like a deer," "hands like lotuses about to bloom," "head like an
egg," and other attributes.
Traditional Thai sculpture almost entirely displays depictions of the Buddha,

and is extremely similar to other Southeast Asian traditions such as Khmer. Book
illustrations and painted embellishment of buildings such as palaces and temples
are common subjects in traditional Thai paintings. The indigenous civilizations of
the Mon and Khmer impacted Thai art. Thai had evolved into its own distinct style
during the Sukothai and Ayutthaya periods, and was influenced by other Asian
forms, primarily Sri Lankan and Chinese. The royal courts supported Thai sculpture
and painting, establishing temples and other religious monuments as acts of merit
or to mark significant events.
Laos
Lao art encompasses a wide range of artistic

and cultural expressions that originate in Laos. This
contains both ancient and contemporary artifacts.
Textiles, woodcarving, and basket weaving are
examples of Laotian art that frequently incorporate
religious (Buddhist) themes.
Laotian artisans are expert metalsmiths

who create sculptures out of bronze, gold, and silver.
The majority of Monastery castings are of little
sculptures and artifacts, however big
Reliefs at the Wat Pa Phai representations, such as the Phra Say, a giant
Monastery
golden Buddha figure, are occasionally
manufactured.
Vietnam
From Neolithic ornamented pottery to finely

ornate bronze Dong Son drums with geometric designs
and chronicles of the culture's lives and conquests,
Vietnamese art has a long history. Vietnam has been
influenced religiously and philosophically by
Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism over the
centuries. The French occupation, which created
schools in the area, had an impact on painting.
Silk painting is one of the most popular

Vietnamese arts because it can create mysterious Dong Son drums –
effects by combining silk and paint. Vietnamese silks Southeast Asian art
are unusual in the genre due to their love of vibrant

color and more liberal use of paint.
Cambodia
Cambodian stone sculpture is elaborate,

precise, and narrative. Individual leaves are
carved from trees because the detail is so tiny, yet
the carver is able to achieve even finer details.
Silversmithing, lacquerware, a variety of

fabrics, and kite building are all examples of
Cambodian art. Modern art was fostered,
commissioned, and purchased for the
Stone carving in Cambodia
government and its officials after a school for
Cambodian arts was created in the 1940s.
Cambodian art is emerging thanks to the power and determination of a

remarkable people. Following their government's genocide of their people, artistic
rebirth has been revived and renewed.
Myanmar
Sculpture, architecture, relief, murals,

and carving are all used to depict the Buddha
in Burma/Myanmar art. Burmese "books" were
made before the invention of paper by stacking
palm leaves one on top of the other and tying
them. The new books were still constructed in
the shape of palm leaves when the paper was
developed, following a Burmese custom.
Instead of binding, the book pages

were attached end to end and then folded
accordion style so that the full length of the
book could be unfolded and read at once, with
book lengths surpassing 20 feet in certain
Crowned and jeweled Buddha sitting cases.

Indonesia
The combination of indigenous customs and

foreign influences, such as Hinduism,
Buddhism, and Islam, has impacted
Indonesian architecture.
Between the 8th and 10th centuries CE, the

Sailendra dynasty ruled Java and Bali, and
stone and bronze art thrived. These sculptures
are distinguished by their delicacy and serenity
of expression, and were either free standing
Balinese paintings in Indonesia statues or relief sculptures and friezes placed
into temples.
Although Africa contains the oldest art evidence, Indonesia has the oldest
example of art application, with two stencils of hands and paintings of animal forms
dating back 40,000 years.
More recently, the Balinese paintings, which are natural in subject and
expression, and the relief sculptures (reaching 100 meters) at the temple Borobudur
in Java have made Indonesia famous. The vivid and complex motifs in batik, a dye
painted fabric, are widely admired among contemporary Indonesians.
Malaysia
Malaysian culture is influenced by the diverse

cultures of the Malaysian people. Indigenous tribes
were the first to settle in the area, and they were
followed by the Malays, who arrived from mainland
Asia in ancient times. When commerce began with
those countries, Chinese and Indian culture had an
impact, which grew as immigration to Malaysia rose.
Persian, Arabic, and British cultures have all had a
significant influence on Malaysian culture.
Malaysia's various ethnic groups each have Porta de Santiago Bas-Relief

their own distinct cultural identities, however there
is significant overlap. Malaysia has a long history of art and music, with Malay art
dating back to the sultans of the country. Traditional arts included carving,
silversmithing, and weaving. Islamic taboos prevented the representation of humans
in art until the mid-twentieth century. Performing arts and shadow puppet displays
are popular, and Indian themes are commonly used. Different influences, both from
Malaysian cultures and from other countries, can be seen in architecture. Large
modern structures have been built, including the world's tallest twin skyscrapers.
Singapore
From the 19th century scenario, where artists

ranging from well-known European painters to
anonymous local craftsmen worked their arts in the
bustling entrepot of Singapore, to more than 500
visual arts exhibitions today, Singapore's visual arts
scene has experienced remarkable growth and
advancement.
Abstractions, human figures, landscapes,

portraits, still life, urban scenes, and village scenes
are common themes in Singaporean visual arts. Tan
SwieHian, Liu Kang, Georgette Chen, Francis Ng, and
Heman Chong are some of the well-known artists.
Singapore's modern art scene is prospering, with sculpture, painting, and

other sorts of visual arts, such as exquisite textiles, abundant. Sculpture is a
particularly striking movement, with numerous large-scale works produced.
Philippines
The Southeast Asian collection includes works from Cambodia, Thailand,

Vietnam, Burma, Laos, Indonesia, and the Philippines, with a focus on stone and
metal religious sculpture, ceramics, and textiles, all of which are important in social
ties and ceremonies.
As an Asian country, the Philippines is inspired by other Asian countries. The

Philippines' arts, culture, and heritage have been inspired by a number of Asian
countries. The Philippines had two primary influences before to Western
colonization: India and China. Other Asian countries such as Indonesia, Thailand,
Japan, and others affected the Philippines.
The folk arts of Asia demonstrate unity and diversity in art and culture, with
Filipino artists' works resembling those of neighbouring Indonesia, Thailand,
Malaysia, and China.
Cloth Weaving
The ASEAN region provides a treasure trove of the most gorgeous handwoven
fabrics found anywhere in the world for silk textile lovers. The range of these textiles
is astounding: from Cambodian and Thai ikats to Indonesian and Malaysian golden
songkets, to Philippine pina silk and Burmese acheik — each country has its own
centuries-old weaving traditions that are delectably unique and must-sees for
travelers.
Pina (pineapple), abaca (banana fiber),
maguey (century plant), cotton, and silk, as well
as embellishments such as beads, stones, seeds,
shells, and coins, are all used in the Philippines'
weaving traditions. Sericulture, or silk cocoon
production, has been reestablished across the
country.
Iloilo province, on Panay Island's southern

tip, is known for its hablon cloth. Hablon is
fashioned with beautifully colored threads made from silk, cotton, pina, and other
indigenous materials, and is derived from the Hiligaynon word "habol," which means
"to weave." Hablon was originally used to produce the patadyong, a wrap-around
swimming gown worn by Visayas women.
Basket weaving
The Cordilleras primarily employ baskets

in their work. When they need to go to mountain
terraces to develop their farms, they use them to
store their food.
Carrying grains, hunting animals, and

fishing in streams all necessitate the use of a
basket. Bamboo baskets are used as fish traps,
and the shape and size of the baskets are
determined by the type of fish they want to catch.
Pottery
In the Philippines, pots come in a variety

of sizes, shapes, and styles. The majority of their
designs are geometric with stylized nature
motifs. With the passage of time, pottery became
more utilitarian.
Palayok, which is used in cooking, is an

example of this. Liquids are stored in banga and
tapayan. There's also the kalan, a clay-made
stove. Burnay pottery is still made in Ilocos Sur,
and it is a living heritage.
Woodcarving
Filipino sculpture is the most well-known art

form in the country. Carvings of anitos (nature gods),
santos (saints), and statues of Christ and the Blessed
Mother are the most popular woodcarvings in the
Philippines.
Shape, scale, and the medium utilized in

Philippine sculpture have all changed over time.
Southeast Asian Art Key Highlights
• The Buddha's relics are reported to be kept in Laos' Phra Bang monument.
• During the Middle Ages, Thai pottery were popularly ornamented with natural
plant sceneries and animals. It is the only period in Thai history where
ceramics flourished.
• Special occasions in Vietnam were commemorated by visits to a local
instructor to get a calligraphy painting of poetry or traditional sayings.
• Kites have been created in Cambodia for a long time, but they are only flown
at night during the monsoon season and have an attached bow that generates
a melodious sound when it blows in the wind.
• An image of a beast that resembles the stegosaurus may be found in the
Angkor Wat temple. Skeptics believe it has something to do with the Mountain
Horned Dragon or the chameleons that live in the area.
Southeast Asian countries have adapted to these cultural impulses in a variety

of ways, including in lifestyle, the visual arts, and, most notably, architectural
achievements like Angkor Wat in Cambodia and Borobudur in Indonesia.
In mainland Southeast Asia (Burma, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, and

Vietnam), Buddhist culture has had a lasting and profound impact; the majority of
Buddhists in Indochina practice Theravada Buddhism. In the case of Vietnam,
Confucianism and Chinese culture have had a significant influence. Myanmar's
culture has also been influenced by Indian influences. Hinduism and Buddhism were
the prominent religions in Southeast Asia prior to the 14th century. Following it,
Islam became the main religion in Indonesia, Malaysia, and Brunei. Southeast Asia
has also been heavily influenced by the West as a result of colonialism's lingering
impact. The Philippines, for example, has been greatly affected by the US and Spain,
with Christianity (Catholicism) as the major religion. East Timor is a largely Christian
country that has been influenced by Portuguese colonialism.
Stilt dwellings are a typical sight throughout the region. These homes are built
on stilts to allow water to readily pass beneath them in the event of a flood. Rice
paddy cultivation, which originated thousands of years ago in Southeast Asia, is
another common element. Dance theatre is another major aspect of the culture,
involving thousands of years of skilled hand and foot motions. In addition, Southeast
Asia's arts and literature are distinct, since some have been influenced by Indian,
Hindu, Chinese, Buddhist, and Islamic literature.
These Southeast Asian countries' unique cultures have produced artistic

forms and expressions that are inextricably linked to their history, society, and
religion. It demonstrates that arts and culture throughout Southeast Asia share
common qualities, drawing on comparable but regionally diverse mythical and
religious beliefs and cultural traditions.

What I Can Do
Activity: Making a Merlion Statue Model
Directions: Stick to the steps outlined in the method.

While doing this activity, remember to take safety
precautions with the guidance of your parents and
guardians. Use the rubrics below to assist you.
Materials you will need:

• soap
• knife
• cutter
• pencil
• old newspaper
1. Pick up a bar of soap. Any soap will do, but a larger bar will be simpler to
handle and provide more material to work with. Make sure you're working on
a well-protected surface for your soap carving.
2. Select a knife for use. Because soap is fairly soft, a sharp knife isn't required.
Plastic knives, spoons, and Popsicle sticks can also be used. This is especially
crucial to remember if you're working on this project with sharp knives to
avoid any accidents.
3. On one side of the soap, draw an outline of your sculpture. You can either use
a pencil to create the outline first, or scrape the outline into the soap using a
knife, orange wood stick, or toothpick.
4. Using small slivers or pieces, remove the soap from the perimeter of the
outline. Scrape away only little sections at a time, since it will be easier to
remove than to replace an over scraped piece. If you cut off too much, the soap
will shatter into chunks.
5. To further improve the design, add detail to the interior of your shape. Wet
your finger and rub the surface of the soap to create a smooth finish once the
carving is complete. Allow a day for it to dry and solidify.

Additional Activities
Basket Weaving
Directions: Stick to the steps outlined in the method.

While doing this activity, remember to take safety
precautions with the guidance of your parents and
guardians. Use the rubrics below to assist you.
Materials:
• newspapers sheets as much as needed

• string or thread
• paperclips
• craft knife
• scissors
• ruler
• cutting mat or cardboard
Procedures:
1. Cut the strips. One newspaper sheet should

be turned sideways. Every two inches, make
a hash mark. In the same way, mark the
opposite side. Place the ruler over two of the
marks and cut across with a craft knife to
make the strips. Make 20 strips in total.
2. Fold the strips. Fold each strip in half like a

hotdog (be careful not to conceal the side you
want to show). Remove the strip and open it.
Fold both edges of your first fold into the
center line you made. Fold following the initial
center line you drew. You should have a 1/2-
inch broad strip at this point.
3. Weave. Ten strips should be stacked
vertically. The crease on the 5 on the left
should face left, while the crease on the 5 on
the right should face right. Weave a horizontal
strip by traveling over, under, and over until
you've reached the end. To help prevent the
vertical strips from shifting, place a hefty
object over them. Complete the weave with the
remaining strips. Make sure the crease on
each half of the strip is facing out.
4. Cut the string. Measure a thread length that

is slightly longer than the circle of the base.
Remove it. It should be folded in half.
5. Twine. One half of the string should be

underneath the strip and the other half
should be on top. Twist the ends of the strips
together. Change the string ends' placements
so that the one on top now goes beneath the
following strip. Continue to twine till you get
back to the beginning. Tie the string's ends
together.
6. Weave the sides. Begin by picking one of the

sides. Split them in half, making 5 strips on
one side and 5 strips on the other. Cross the
two strips in the middle. Combine the two
sides and weave them together. Make the
weaving tighter. Use a paperclip to
temporarily secure the woven side. Using the
same method, weave the remaining three
sides together. Weave the sides together to
form a single solid shape.
7. Make the edge. Fold one strip over the other
starting with any two strips that are next to
each other. Weave this into the basket's
interior. Fold the one next to it over and weave
it into the interior of the basket. Continue
folding the strips into the inside until all of
them are folded in.
8. Add finishing touches. From the inside, trim

the strips' remaining edges. Pull each strip
from the bottom up through the top to tighten
it up. Continue doing so until you think it's
secure. Place the basket upside down over a
container with a heavy object on top of it for
several hours to make the base flat.
