Program Note:
"Ghosts of" summons the ghosts of my body. Across movements drawn from personal memories, the piece
traces my body's transformation from a site of destruction to a site of loss, to eventually, ghosts. These ghosts of
different body parts, some combative, some silent, haunt the rest of the body that still remains, clamoring for
liberation.
