CHRYSALIS is a project born out of my first years of transitioning: songs of hope for holding on, cries of joy and grief for the love of a suffering community, trance tapestries of woven sound accompanying the alignment of the physical body with the luminant body.
This work was made with the support of the 2022 Immersive Artist-In-Residence program from the TD Toronto Jazz Festival.
