Prior to colonization, Siquijor was home to the Kedatuan of Katugasan, named after the tugas, the molave trees which abounded the island.
In the heart of Siquijor province in the southern Philippines lies mananambal, the healers, who have kept this heritage alive for generations. the healing artist of Siquijor Junel Tomaroy, stands as a serene sanctuary, offering solace to patients seeking traditional folk remedies.
The beauty of the 14th Tam-Awan international arts festival is that you get to meet our artists from all over the Philippines, storytellers who have unique stories about their traditions and origins. And here I met our fellow artist Junel who is a healing artist from Siquijor. His ability and knowledge to heal comes from his ancestors that until now he continues to do it to help others. This is the right time and time to recognize the face of Siquijor through him as most people know that he is surrounded by many wonders. That it is not only infested by witches or Mangba-barangs. Or, any evil elements that are not understood in modern times. It is also a fact of our culture and history that our source of food and medicine is still dependent on our mother nature. We talked a lot and also to better understand their culture. A part in this vlog is how they also make their antidotes against bad elements. And part of my documenting in this vlog is to see more the depth of cultural wealth that we have. You can fully understand a place not only by the covered masks that are there, but see more depth to be attracted to the true beauty of siquijor and those around it. that the town of Siquijor has a "real face."

“All the herbs they need are there in the forest, so we preserve it, we do not ruin it. Traditional practices and beliefs encourage respectful and sustainable harvest of medicinal plants.
When I was little, I witnessed the characteristics of healers, they also do rituals that can ward off bad luck in our lives and pray for our departed. This is a culture that I grew up with in the Philippines. I have seen a potion that looks like peanuts that is put in drinks or food and there is also something that looks like a liquid that is rubbed on. but all that still comes from nature. Nature is very important for us as we source our livelihood from what we eat and medicine. And also, home to insects and animals that can only be found in the Philippines. an ability and knowledge that continues to be practiced in the present time in the traditions that are the heritage of our race.
Traditional practices and beliefs are sustained in the harvesting of medicinal plants.” and it also encourages respect for our ancestors. And balancing our source of needs from mother nature.
It has been a part of our lifestyle and culture even before the arrival of the Spaniards.
Let's not forget the views and beliefs that our ancestors still do so let's love art and culture because this is the wealth we have. that we also have our own identity.
