Maguayen

by Melchor Bernaldo
48" X 36" | Acrylic on Canvas | 2024 | 28128

According to the Ancient Visayans of the South, Magwayen is the first goddess of the sea and water, the female aspect of creation made by Kanlaon to balance Kaptan, the Sky God.

She personifies the great wide ocean that covers the entire world. She is nurturing, calming, and a provider of food for our Malay ancestors who relies on the abundant fish and seafoods to feed their barangays or “community”, but is also known to be tempestuous and violent at times, capable of creating giant tsunamis, whirlpools, floods and heavy rains when she gets angry.
