今早收到朋友的简讯,才知道上个星期文龙替Brian, Tzu Nyen 和我的访问以登报了。就在今天七月十四日的‘联合早报-ZBNow’。 Here’s an extract from the article.

“艺术变得多元,青年艺术家的才能也同时多元起来,像今年25岁的罗子涵,就是一个能演、能写又能导的艺术工作者。

罗子涵首次引起公众注意,是他在国产电影《快乐工厂》全裸登场,为本地第一个正面全裸的小生。此外,他在自编自导自演的影片《单》(Solos)中,也曾有大胆激情演出。

虽然连续两部电影都有裸露、激情镜头,而且媒体觉得他内心戏发挥不错,但罗子涵却直言,他演戏不是为了博出位,而是渴望当一个导演。

刚毕业于南洋理工大学艺术设计与媒体学院(School of Art,Design and Media)的他,就积极参与必要剧场的舞台剧制作如《肥胖女孩》、《冷冻天使》等。

《冷冻天使》虽然是舞台剧,但在形式表现上更接近一部电影。全剧以阔大的银幕为背景,罗子涵用影像呈献各种城市街景、人物身体特写,泛黄旧照片,配合演员的自叙,使影像多了互动部分。

罗子涵表示,自己有时会混淆自己的身份,不知自己到底扮演的是导演还是多媒体艺术家的角色。比如《冷冻天使》的制作过程,就是先有他的电影影像,后才有演员的文本和台词。”

Where have I disappeared to? Been busy these few months, first with my graduation film ‘THRESHOLD’ then with the organization of ‘FLARE’, my graduation screening which was held as a private event at the National Museum of Singapore on the 26th of June 2009. ‘FLARE’ was quite well attended, and I’m glad that we had a proper platform to showcase our works.

The marathon for ‘THRESHOLD’ is finally coming to an end, wrapping things up and sending the film out to festivals – keeping my fingers crossed and wishing for the best. A few months ago I received notice that i’ve been accepted to the School of Art Institute of Chicago. I’m tying up loose ends here in Singapore, preparing for the move this coming August.

I will be pursuing my Masters in Film, Video and New Media – I am really looking forward to it, and I think it will be a great experience.

Before I go, I embarked on another project. I’m acting in an upcoming Mandarin play staged by Dramabox called ‘BONDAGE’ (上身不由己). I did a reading for this original play last year, and Danny the director has kindly invited me to come back on board to reprise the role for the stage version.

It will be held over the National Day weekend this August. Rehearsals have begun and will be getting increasingly intense nearing the date of performance. I will be posting more information about the play on this space within the next two weeks, so if you are interested do check back soon.
