Grateful for the opportunity to score the @asiannyfw debut of @sumlondon_ this past weekend :)

SUM LONDON’s show was based on qi and different energies of life. To reflect that in the score, each model is associated with a mini-song representing a different rhythm of life. It was both fun and challenging to incorporate so many vibes ranging from the 9-to-5 grind to the favorite uncle doing tai chi in the park 🙂‍↕️

Thank you @sumlondon_ @magzsam for letting me support your story and vision. Huge congrats on this debut!!

Thank you to @viveforlove for the beautiful choreography which deepened the intentionality of the show so much more.

Thank you to @choiboi724 for the simple but powerful visuals that conveyed the meaning of each section.

Thank you to @siyan_siyan_siyan for the permission to sample music from your incredible EP “Peel the Skin” for parts of the show (go stream her music!)

And thank you to @asiannyfw for supporting AAPI fashion, creativity, and storytelling :)

More to come on what went into the score! In the meantime, here’s to more AAPI stories 🥂
