THE KAT CLOSET: Flight of the Phoenix

Phoenix Petroleum Philippines, Inc. (PNX) is the leading independent and fastest-growing oil company in the Philippines. Since its first station in 2005 in Davao, it has expanded nationwide. Its business covers the trading of refined petroleum products and lubricants to retail and commercial channels, operation of oil depots and storage, and transport services.

To celebrate Phoenix Petroleum’s fifteen colorful years of success together with its parent company UDENNA Corporation, they present an art exhibit titled: “Beginnings & Beyond”, in further support of their company’s mission and vision, and as a homage and praise to their hometown—Davao City. The exhibit was opened at SM Lanang Premier on December 8, 2017 and will be held until December 16, 2017 at the malls’ upper level ground floor.

The exhibit is a collection of excellent, diverse, and original artworks tastefully and carefully curated by renowned artist and curator, Victor Secuya. “The featured paintings are images of Davao and Mindanao filtered through the artists’ visual vocabulary, singular vision, and unique interpretation of Mindanao men, women, children, flora, and fauna,” the curator states. On display are the works of twelve Davao-based artists, namely: Venerando “Rey” Bollozos, Adolfo Buenaventura, Mariano “Anoy” Catague, Rogelito “Jun” Cayas, Amanda Echevarria, Louella “Dadai” Joaquin, Alynnah Macla, Gilbert Miraflor, Welehito “Lito” Pepito, Teody “Bong” Perez, Mishael “Misha” Pueblas, and Victor Secuya.

“The featured artists are serious and professional practitioners with credible body of works manifesting great imagination, excellent skills, and strong academic visual foundations. They all have their respective unique aesthetics, style, and character. Their unifying thread is their love for Mindanao, dedication to their craft, and clear vision of their artistic destiny,” shared Vic Secuya.

This exhibit is a benchmark for Phoenix Petroleum’s advocacy towards the arts and a continuation of their CSR program by nurturing the Philippine pride—especially the Mindanaoan legacy. With its vision to be an indispensable partner in the journey of everyone whose life it touches, the company is committed to deliver world-class services, empower people, and inspire every Filipino’s entrepreneurial spirit.
