So and bex are not the same person
So + Bex are best friends who first met in 2015.
Both alumni of EMERGENYC—the Hemispheric New York Emerging Performers Program, So and Bex’s first performance together was a part of a partnership with Art in Odd Places. They began developing their collaborative artistic vocabulary at Brooklyn Arts Exchange (BAX), first as participants in the Upstart Program 2017, Space Grantees 2018, and then as Artists in Residence (2019-21). They were selected to show work at The Brick's Trans Theatre Festival in July 2018, Spring 2019 BRIClab residents, and were featured at the Highline's Out of Line series in July 2019. As solo artists, they have been invited to present at theaters, galleries, and universities in Singapore and the U.S., including La MaMa, the National Asian American Theater Company, and 3LD. So + Bex were 2021-22 Jerome Hill Artist Fellows, and are 2024 MAP Fund Grantees.
