ARTS OF REGION 1
The word PAGBURNAYAN derives from the root word
burnay. It refers to Vigan ceramic pots that are handcrafted. These clays are
known as Bantog clays. They're excavated in the city's western
barangays. Historical Background: The burnay-making industry dates back to
pre-colonial times, when Chinese immigrants settled in Vigan. They developed
the technique of creating earthenware with grade A clay found in abundance in
Vigan's western region. Its previous uses included serving tea as a
container for salt, brown sugar, water, local wine (basi), and bagoong
(fermented fish). Basi and bagoong are supposed to taste better when stored
within burnays. Artist: Fidel Go was named National Folk Artist by the National
Commission on Culture and Arts in 1990. He is the proprietor of Ruby Pottery
and has continued to practice and perpetuate the burnay-making craft to this
day. Processes used: Burnay is made entirely by the potter's skilled hands, using
the pottery wheel and kiln. Fine sand is used to temper the clay, which is then
placed into high-temperature ground kilns composed of brick and clay once it
has been fashioned into the proper shape.
THE CARASI MAGDADARAN TALIP FESTIVAL- a festival of the barangays Carasi, Dumalneg, and Nueva Era in Adams, Ilocos Norte. It strives to remember the historic peace covenant that established enduring peace amongst ethnic communities in the province of Ilocos Norte. It's also a time to strengthen ties and foster fraternity among the tribes and Ilocanos who mix with them. The ritual of dancing is a unifying means to express a collective feeling of the people toward a significant event in their lives — jubilation following the birth of a firstborn child, courtship and marriage, thanksgiving for a bountiful harvest after "Pananguman," and "Panaganup," or hunting; or hopefulness following a healing ritualAll of these festivities culminate in the Talip's dancing, which is why the festival is known as the Magdadaran Talip Festival. The dancers of Carasi, who are true descendants of the stronghold tribe, will depict the Talip, as well as the Taddah and Sarigsig, two other interesting indigenous dances of the town, in their significant uses in the lives of the tribes people, as well as the romantic love story of an Isnag hunter and an Ilocana as they journey through the rituals of courtship and marriage culminating in a tribal celebration. The women will dance in sophisticated dance steps to the quick beats of the sound of ganza and ludag, overlaid with a vibrant remix of danceable Ilocano music, while the men will dance in Baags emphasized with local materials

gingham-like colored design on one side and a plain reverse. Paraglara- local
weavers Artists' Statement: Every bachelor who wishes to woo a woman must first
learn how to process buri leaves for weaving. While the woman's mother keeps an
eye on her, the man must assist her in weaving. Before going to court, the man
must first learn how to process the leaves. The leaves are dried, frequently
dyed, then chopped into strips and woven into mats that might be simple or
complex. Buri leaves are commonly used to produce their mats. Buri strips that have been colored are frequently woven into patterns. The leaves are dyed in a variety of vibrant hues to create a gorgeous, vivid, and one-of-a-kind artwork.
