Kublai

If you are in Davao City, with some time in your hands, visit my cousin Kublai's art gallery at Ponce Suites (his Mom Min and her older brother own this small hotel). Kublai finished Fine Arts at UPD, and has busied himself as a sculptor and painter.

He made the huge durian sculpture at the Davao International Airport (pictured left) and Sultan Kudarat town's kampilan statue. He is also "famous" for his sculptures in the Enigmata Treehouse Galeri.

He has been commissioned to do the main sculptures of what will be the biggest church in Mindanao in Tagum City. He will make a 50-foot statue of the risen Christ.
