How does art preserve your identity as Filipinos?
Answer:MEDIA ART/CULTURAL ARTIn Philippines, art as in painting, drawing and medias isn't really a strong thing. There is really no Filipinos artists up to the fame of such artists like Da Vinci or modern day artists. Although, when it comes to religious aspects since most Filipinos are Catholics; yes then art and murals become really strong in church walls and such. Also, the Philippines is home to hundreds of indegenous groups. This because REALLY obvious when you get to Visayas, Palawan and Mindanao. Despite having a lot of Catholic churches there, you'll see a lot of pre-colonial existance still strong over there. Colorful clothing, dances, and pre-colonial houses that are built Malay style and resembls Malay houses called "kampongs". Since the Malays did inhabit the Philippines before the Spanish got here.CULINARY ARTSWhenever it comes to the culinary arts of the Philippines, again it is extremely diverse in terms of influences. Filipinos do have their own native dishes, some good and some bad like every other country. Well first let us start with the obvious, the Chinese influence. But that's usual, for Chinese influence can be found all around Southeast Asia. In Malaysia, Vietnam, Thailand, Philippines, Indonesia all sorts of countries in Southeast Asia. But Brunei and East Timor for their cultures are their own. But Chinese food, dominates a lot of Filipino cuisine. Chinese steamed-buns are as popular of a snack/sandwhich with Filipinos and Vietnamese as it is with Chinese. In fact, my aunts make these things whenever we have a part. Lumpiang shangai, is Filipino style deep-fried egg rolls. This differs from the Chinese, it is smaller and deep fried a little longer and contains a little more meat. Like pork. Since Filipinos and Malays, have same origin (Taiwan/Madagascar), a lot of Filipino cuisine is also of "Malay stock". Filipino cuisines consist of marinaded meats, served with rice on banana leaves or skewers and eaten with hands. Although since Filipinos are mostly Catholic, pork is present in Filipino cuisine. Spanish foods, such as cripsy patta, lechon, flan, and empanadas are all national cuisines of the Philippines as they are in Mexico, Puerto Rico or Spain. Especially lechon, served in just about every Filipino party. Filipinos also eat wrapped and steamed foods, as I said with the Chinese steamed bun.
