## Bleeding Heart

Chroma Corps is an annual art challenge where participants design and submit an original character known as a cadet during the entry phase. My cadet is named Bleeding Heart, a former opera powerhouse turned sad girl Sunday singer who has found a new avenue to channel her rage. She’s done bleeding.
