BISHI – MAYA: The Birth of a Superhero
A boundary-pushing live performance blending classical traditions with electronic sound and immersive visuals.
Experience British Bengali artist, composer, producer, sitarist, and cult figure BISHI live in concert to celebrate the release of her fourth studio album MAYA: The Birth of a Superhero – Original Score, featuring music from the acclaimed immersive film of the same name in a live show at London’s Rich Mix on Wednesday 10 June. This will be accompanied by a community - led workshop on 8 June, in partnership with Diasporas Now, a live art community and cultural agency.
Shortlisted at the Festival de Cannes 2024, the film, forms part of award-winning activist and transmedia artist Poulomi Basu’s law-changing multimedia project, Blood Speaks. Set in London, confronts menstrual exile, stigma and violence against women in South Asian communities through the eyes of a young girl navigating adolescence, sexuality and her own emerging power. BISHI’S evocative, deeply human score quietly anchors the film’s emotional force. Blending Hindustani and Western classical traditions with electronic experimentation, BISHI showcases her four-octave vocal range, electric sitar, and immersive cinematic soundscapes.
BISHI is celebrated for her bold, visually driven live performances. For these shows, bespoke visuals from the creators of the film, manipulated in real time, create a visceral, cinematic experience that blurs the boundaries between concert and performance art.
