Kublai Millan: Opening a window to Mindanaoan art<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If you follow singing contests both here and abroad, you know there is an abundance of talented Filipino singers the world over. The same can be said of visual artists in the country\u2014there are so many talented artists from various regions of the Philippines who are not given enough attention. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To ensure that his fellow artists from Mindanao do not suffer this fate,\u00a0Kublai Millan<\/strong>\u00a0has made it his mission to promote the arts from the region, with the help of other artist members of the\u00a0Lawig\u00a0Diwa\u00a0group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThere is so much that needs to be done for visual arts in Mindanao. The work is never done, so I see myself continuing with the vision of helping propagate the desire for rootedness to help create an art genre that is truly Mindanao,\u201d he tells the Manila Bulletin. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As an artist, Kublai felt the effects of 2020 on the art industry, with galleries and museums closed, and planned exhibits put on hold. Yet he did not let the year that was take away what could be, particularly for his own art and for Mindanao art as a whole. Lawig Diwa and Kublai, in fact, were able to successfully stage the 2nd Mindanao Art, thanks in no small part to the help of virtual exhibits. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI have been consistent with my aspirations and message: To plumb the depth of your art you have to be grounded to who you are, be in touch with your heart, and to always care for the environment,\u201d he says. \u201cThe year 2020 happened because we ignored all these. Meaning, the message will remain the same. Maybe what will change is the coverage, the immensity and intensity. That\u2019s just how it is. We must just keep on stepping up.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And step up he continually does, to put\u00a0Mindanao art and culture at the forefront of the Philippine art scene.\u00a0(Rom Mallick)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
