visually impaired photographers of The Seeing With Photography Collective at the Center for the Blind in Manhattan. Inspired by these incredible photos and the fascinating process of “light painting” used to create them, Kelly composed music that captures
and amplifies the emotional quality of the photos.</span></p>
