Shen Yun Commenti: David Tupaz, fashion designer

“It’s wonderful to see Chinese culture before communism came. Then the richness of its culture and the variety of spiritual stories—that seems to be very important today, with what’s happening to the world today. I think the message of Shen Yun transcends that, and the coloration, and everything grand. I think the inspiration for my collection next year will be inspired from Shen Yun. I really believe in the show, and I think it’s a fantastic, beautiful performance! And I’m so proud to be Asian… And it kind of like relaxes our mind and calms our spirit amidst all the turmoil, amidst all the pandemic, and the war going on in Europe right now. So it’s like a breath of fresh air… I think you have to watch Shen Yun, not just because you’ve heard about it, but because it will calm your spirit, it will give you a different view of how culture is in Asia, especially in China before communism came. It will show the richness of this particular culture as it shares its performances all over the world. And I think it’s wonderful!”
