Eduardo Mutuc is the artist of many religious pieces of
silver, bronze, and wood seen in churches. His works
could be as large as forty feet tall or so small and
delicate that it requires detailed craftsmanship.
Eduardo became a master in silver plating, a skill
required to make the gold decorations of many
secular decorations.

often described as the "last" and oldest mambabatok (traditional Kalinga
tattooist) and is part of the Butbut people of the larger Kalinga ethnic group.
She has been tattooing headhunters and women of the indigenous people of
Butbut in Buscalan, Kalinga, since she was 15 years old, but the Butbut warriors
who used to earn tattoos through protecting villages or killing enemies no longer
exist. Despite that, Whang-od continues to apply her traditional art form to
tourists visiting Buscalan.
The National Commission for Culture and the Arts (NCCA) conferred to Whang-
od the prestigious Dangal ng Haraya Award at Tabuk, the capital of Whang-od's
ethnic province of Kalinga, in 2018. She was nominated for the National Living
Treasures Award (Gawad Manlilikha ng Bayan) in 2017. Her nomination is still
being processed by the NCCA.
