I’d like to redo this since I improved by a long shot. One of the best artworks I did at the time.

My winning entry for “Sabat it Katutubo: Makabagong Sining sa Makasaysayang Kaganapan”. The digital poster making contest centers on the responses of the precolonial Filipinos on the arrival of the Spaniards in 1521. Thank you UP Kamaragtas, UP LIKAS, and UP Kalipunan ng Mag-aaral sa Kasaysayan for spearheading this commemorative activity!

Posting this during National Heroes Day could not have been more fitting.

In making the poster, I decided to depict an encompassing portrayal of the responses of pre-colonial Filipinos and its consequences in our nation-building and in who we are as Filipinos. I focused primarily on the primary responses: cooption into Spanish rule, acceptance, syncretism of Christianity, and resistance against foreign intervention and colonialism.

As historians such as Resil Mojares have pointed out, Humabon acted as a local politico who, through sandugo, made allies with Magellan to further consolidate his rule over his constituents. He was far from the last, followed fifty years after by the native leadership (such as Matanda, Dula, and Sulayman of Manila), who became the principalia class. Cooption led to our nation being infested by Filipino mendicant leaders highly dependent on the graces of their foreign masters.

Following Humabon’s cooption and baptism, the image of the Child Jesus was given to Hara Humanay, baptized as Reyna Juana. Just as how the Sugbuanons used the Sto. Nino, as anito post-1521, we syncretized the faith and made it our own. Resistance mixed with the Christian faith has been seen repeatedly, exemplified by Hermano Pule’s rebellion, the Secularization Movement, and the GomBurZa. Hence, from a colonial tool of exploitation, the faith has become “the Eucharist of the Rice.”

Lastly, resistance. Rooted from the old chieftain of Mactan, revolts against foreign rule pestered the 333 years of the Spanish Empire. From early revolts such as Sultan Kudarat of Maguindanao and the nameless hero of the Battle of Bangkusay until Bonifacio and the Philippine Revolution of 1896, we Filipinos shared the struggles of our ancestors to fight for freedom against foreign intervention and oppression. It is a reminder for us to learn from their responses and liberate ourselves from the shackles that have bound us for the past 500 years.

Pag-aalala sa mga Bayani ng Kasaysayang Pilipino

Isang mapagpalayang Araw ng mga Bayaning Pilipino sa ating lahat!

Based on the Alaala ng Bayang Pilipino sa mga Bayani ng '96 sculpture whose subject, although often wrongly assumed as Bonifacio, is a representation of the heroes of the Philippine Revolution.

Honestly, it's kinda cool that I just made the Precolonial Sugbuanon Miku since I initially planned a set of BINI artworks in different historical periods and in their respective hometowns (hence Aiah in Sugbu/Cebu) for our National History Month.

I did not push through it since med school is taxing as usual but in some ways, I started with it already, so again, COOL

Isang mapagpalayang pag-aalala sa ika-128 anibersaryo ng Sigaw ng Balintawak! ✊❤️‍🔥

Pagpapasya sa Balintawak 🌞

"Ang Pilipino ay marapat pag-alayan ng buhay"
- Ninoy Aquino (aking salin, sa tulong ni Pao Ching-Ming)

Malamang narining niyo na ang mga phrases na, “Batikang Broadcaster” or “ Batikang Manunulat” o di kaya “Batikang Aktor” pero may idea ba kayo kung sa’n ito nagmula?🤔

Ang salitang Batikan ay hango sa word na Batik | ᜊᜆᜒᜃ᜴ or Batuk, ang Filipino word for tattoo. Dito nakilala ang mga mandirigmang Pintados nung pre-colonial period sa Kabisayaan ganun din ang mga Butbut sa Kalinga na na-preserve nila up to now.🤎

Ang mga batik sa katawan ay hindi basta sining o self-expression. Ang batik ay ginagawad sa isang mandirigmang nagpakita na husay sa digmaan at kabayanihan. Kapag ang isang tao ay tadtad ng batik sa katawan, mayroon siyang mataas at mahalagang katungkulan sa kanyang banwa kaya siya tinitingala at nirerespeto ng kanyang nasasakupan at the same time ay kinatatakutan siya ng mga kalaban.🗡❤️‍🔥

Kapag nagwagi sa labanan ang isang Batikan, nagse-celebrate ang kanyang mga kababayan dahil it brings honor at security sa kanyang banwa at the same time maganda rin ito sa economy ng banwang pinamumunuan niya dahil dala-dala niya ang mga ari-arian ng tinalo niyang kalaban wether ito’y mga pagkain, kagamitan, sandata o mga bihag na pwedeng gawing alipin.💪🏽

Kapag ang isang individual ay nagpakita ng galing at talent sa kanyang field (arts, journalism, etc.), du'n niya na-earn ang title na "batikan" 😯

Bakit pa pagbubunuin yung dalawa kung nasa iisang panig sila?

Walang opisyal na pagkilala sa isang Pambansang Bayani, pero kung sakaling magkakaroon ang bayan, di kailangang mamili dahil pareho sila.

Alas siyete pa lamang nang umaga ay bumiyahe na si Roberto Buerano, 54, magsasaka mula Real, Quezon, kasama ang kaniyang anak gamit lamang ang motorsiklo upang samahan at suportahan sa .

Aniya, bilang isang magsasaka, malaking bagay kung makapapasa ang anak sa pagsusulit dahil sa libreng tuition ng unibersidad. Naniniwala rin sya na maraming oportunidad na magbubukas sa oras na makatapos sa UP ang anak at makatulong sa kanilang pamilya.
