Overnight at Buscalan Village
Maria Oggay A.K.A Apo Whang-od, recognized as “a living vessel of a traditional practice,” is the first traditional or folk artist who was given the award. Since she was 15 years old, Whang-od, had been marking her customers with a mixture of charcoal and water into their skins.
This was traditionally done for her tribe’s head hunters or warriors for their bravery and to women for aesthetics. Many people deemed it an honor to be tattooed by Whang-od, being considered to be the oldest mambabatok (Kalinga tattooist) and only one of the few Kalinga women who have full body tattoos.
“Kalinga men don’t cheat.” “They wouldn’t dare. Kalinga women are strong and would kill their husbands if caught cheating.”
