何子彦现工作及生活于新加坡。他的创作涉及电影、剧场、装置艺术、声音、写作等多个领域。无论以何种身份、何种媒介开展艺术实践,何子彦都在试图思考如下几个方面的议题:东南亚地域政治与民间历史、神话、文化的研究;对电影语言、结构和符号的研究;与社会现实或内心幻想相关的种种视觉实验和隐喻。
在视频中,何子彦深入探讨了他的新作《等待》的作品概念。《等待》是何子彦在疫情期间开展的一个特别项目,他邀请孟加拉国籍劳工里蓬·乔杜里(Ripon Chowdhury)用摄像机记录下他在度过漫长隔离时间中的一些片段。乔杜里是居住在新加坡国家宿舍中愈32万名的外籍劳工的其中一员。因宿舍居住条件简陋、卫生状况不佳,新加坡的3万多例新冠肺炎感染病例中的大多数病例都在这里发生传染。自2020年4月21日起,政府对所有宿舍实施严格禁闭措施,外籍劳工们(大多来自南亚或中国)基本被限制在自己的房间里。乔杜里来自孟加拉国吉大港,他是一名诗人、作家和活动家。2010年以来,他便一直以外籍劳工的身份在新加坡工作生活。(点击文末阅读原文观看何子彦的作品《等待》)
As a crossover artist, Ho Tzu Nyen often works across a broad range of mediums including film, theatre, installation art, sound, and writing. No matter in what identity or with what medium, Ho always reflects around several aspects: the research on Southeast Asia's regional politics and folk history, mythology and culture; the study of cinematic language, structure and symbols; and various visual experiments and metaphors in relation to social realities or inner illusions.
In this video, Ho Tzu Nyen delves into the concept of his work, 'Waiting'. 'Waiting' is a special project from this epidemic, in which Ho collaborated with Ripon Chowdhury, a Singaporean expatriate worker from Bangladesh, and invited him to record a session of his lengthy quarantine on camera. Ripon Chowdhury is one of some 323,000 migrant workers living in dormitories amongst the city state of Singapore, where the overwhelming majority of Singapore's more than 30,000 COVID-19 infection cases take place. Since 21 April 2020, the government has imposed strict lockdown measures upon all dormitories, and the migrant workers-mostly hailing from South Asia or China-have been largely confined to their rooms. It is in this context that Ripon Chowdhury was invited by artist Ho Tzu Nyen to contribute to Contactless Deliveries. A poet, writer, and activist from Chittagong, Bangladesh, Chowdhury has been based in Singapore since 2010 as a migrant worker. (Click Read More to watch Ho Tzu Nyen's work 'Waiting')
