Bitchin’ Collabs is an exciting new residency supporting interdisciplinary works-in-progress by femmes of color! EBP will provide a platform for artists to share, develop and receive feedback on their dynamic, interdisciplinary works-in-progress over the course of EBP’s 2020 Season.

Devoted entirely to femmes of color, EBP will support 6 artists in a year long residency to experiment with new ideas and offer audiences an inside look into an artist’s process.

The program will feature four performance exhibitions throughout the 2020 season, curated by Miranda Haymon!

In light of the COVID-19 pandemic, EBP has adjusted the first two events of this series to take place virtually. Artists will have the opportunity to collaborate with a Virtual Technical Producer (Alisha Bhowmik) to aid in the presentation and documentation of their work. 

*EBP welcomes projects at all stages of development and is open to artists working internationally

applications are now closed

Virtual Producer

ALISHA BHOWMIK (she/her) is a multi-racial, multi-hyphenate artist who’s passions lie in storytelling. She fell in love with design when she was a teenager making posters for theater shows.

Outside of design she is also a filmmaker. A graduate of NYU Tisch, she directs, produces, edits and acts in film and video works. Her short documentary on her identity “Dot & a Feather” was the first Sundance Co//ab Challenge winner. She recently directed a music video for singer/songwriter beccs that premiered on Huffington Post and featured in NYLON and Refinery29. She is a member of Kalakars, a South-Asian actor/filmmaker collective and Filmshop, an NYC based film collective.
