Ending the War on My Body
“Ending The War On My Body” takes us through the depths of body dysmorphia in this series of experimental short films. We follow various characters as they see themselves negatively reflected in fragments and learn, through some horror, how to break the mirrors that cage them.
Since August 2022 I composed over an hour of music for the project which included six short films and seven live dance pieces, all to be premiered on November 5th at Gibney Dance in New York City.
The music varies in styles from baroque-classical to rock to ambient to experimental. Working on this music, as it was an hour of compositions, was a labor of love, trying to support the vision of Katherine McClintic. Katherine gave me a lot of freedom in discovery and form. We focused on exploring the emotional and impressionist impact of her poetry in music.
I’m so proud of the huge amount of content we created and I can’t wait for the soundtrack release.
