Stage On-Screen is an experimental undertaking by Frontier Danceland that situates the filmic translation of theatrical live performance at the intersection between archival documentation and filmmaking. Relooking live performance through the visual language of the filmic lens, the process explores the potentiality of the audio-visual medium in supporting a meaningful conveyance of the physical performance originally meant for the audiencesโ live experience.
This programme features the filmic translation of two creations, ๐๐ฏ๐ญ๐ฐ๐ค๐ฌ by Low Mei Yoke (Singapore) and ๐๐ฆ ๐๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ญ๐ฆ ๐๐ช๐ข๐ณ๐บ by Chiew Peishan (Singapore) that were part of the live performance double bill of MILIEU 2021.
๐๐ฏ๐ญ๐ฐ๐ค๐ฌ is a reconstruction of ๐๐ฉ๐ช๐ต๐ฆ (2012). Rediscovering facets of identity that were once ignored or suppressed, the work explores the potentiality of oneโs dark sides of the shadow self to empower and bring light to the being.
๐๐ฆ ๐๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ญ๐ฆ ๐๐ช๐ข๐ณ๐บ is a response and extension of the autobiographical re-imagination of filmic work, ๐๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ญ๐ฆ ๐๐ช๐ข๐ณ๐บ (2021). Exploring the themes of power and agency through the juxtaposition of personal history with absurdity, the work examines the compulsion to repeat traumatic memories as a paradoxical positive confrontation of the past and inquires if healing can occur coming out of the other side.
