MIAMI—Artist Roxana Frontini was absolutely fascinated by Shen Yun Performing Arts after attending its evening show on Dec. 28 at the Adrienne Arsht Center, and thought “the show is a gateway to heaven.”
Skilled in sculpting with fabrics, Ms. Frontini said she loved the way the dancers’ costumes flowed with the music.
“Fabrics are the language of the soul for me. I’m transported to a place that is not of this realm. I’m grateful that I’m here,” she said.
Based in New York, Shen Yun was established in 2006 with a mission to revive authentic Chinese culture. Prior to the Chinese Communist Party’s spread of atheism, China was known as the Celestial Empire—a country deeply rooted in spirituality and the belief in the divine.
During the performance, Ms. Frontini found a connection between her own meditation experience and how she felt while watching Shen Yun.
“Every time I breathe, I’m breathing with the movement, the sound, and the color. It is really beyond human experience,” Ms. Frontini said.
“When we transcend the tangible aspects of life, we reach for that divine spark that inhabits each one of us. I feel that the show reminds us of that,” Ms. Frontini said. “If we pay close attention, we can actually reconnect with that through the music, the dance, and the colors.”

Also in attendance was professional dancer Rolando Vizcay, who specializes in Native American dancing. Mr. Vizcay loves Chinese culture and thought the performance was breathtaking, “when the girls were dancing, it was so graceful. I don’t think I have the words to even describe it.”
“It brought me a little closer to my inner self, my beliefs, and the things that I believe in,” Mr. Vizcay said. “I got the energy [Shen Yun] is trying to put out there into the world. It’s fantastic.”
Mr. Vizcay found Shen Yun to be very inspiring and would like to share this same energy through his own dances.
“It was really enlightening, and it was beautiful.” For him, the performance “opened the path to many doors and things that can be achieved and accomplished.”
