Jordan Mang-osan
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jordan Mang-osan (born 21 September 1967 in Acupan, Itogon Benguet) is a Filipino artist who harnesses the power of the sun to create pyrography drawings.[1][2] Pyrography is the art of decorating wood or other materials with burn marks.[3][4][5][6]
Mang-osan is an Igorot from the Cordilleras who stays true to his roots by working with raw indigenous materials and focusing on matters that celebrate the rich heritage of his people and his country.[7]
He is one of the founders and current president of the Chanum Foundation, an organization founded in 1996, which aims to create an artist village in the middle of Baguio. It has since become a hub for art and a studio for budding artists all throughout the country.
