‘Fresh for the Stage’ – Life! Article

July 16, 2009

“Kok’s [Heng Leun, Artistic Director of Drama Box] favorite work is Bondage by Cheow Boon Seng, 25, which is a madcap and deconstructive piece involving ghosts, sex and drugs. It flits to and fro in time, and has snappy and erratic scenes.
It revolves around a policeman who moonlights as a tang kee (Hokkien for “medium’) [...]

两栖三栖多栖 他们是 2.0时代艺术家

July 14, 2009

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。”
