Program notes from the composer:
Black Body Collage is a collection of personal identities, experiences, and emotional states. Often, I get confused about who I think I am and who I want
to be in the eyes of others. At times, it even feels like others will project an identity onto me that feels inherently dissonant. Throughout the music, I search for a sense of agency that allows me to either accept or reject certain parts of my perceived identity and gives freedom to the person I really am.
