平台計劃呈獻 PENTAS PROJECT THEATRE PRODUCTION presents
returns after 10 years, to remake its Punch
一場延伸自攝影作品意象與靈感的舞蹈＋劇場疊加創作。
《雙重刺點》由平台計劃呈獻，藝術總監羅國文導演，舞者劉銘和黃志雄，再度擕手登場呈獻＜相紙＞，一個以林偉彬摄影作品為意象靈感，延伸出的舞蹈＋劇場疊加創作。
《雙重刺點》緣起於兩位攝影師林偉彬與莫育榮，他們在中國福建霞浦和九寨溝的攝影之行中，發現鏡頭背後的大自然，有著許多風格獨具、極具舞台張⼒的構圖。因而動念，邀請了羅國文導演和舞者劉銘，前往初冬的九寨溝，透過鏡頭微觀──⼩花⽊的微動、風過湖⽔的聲音、 地上霜的細小變化。隨後以霞浦和九寨溝的攝影作品為素材，延伸作品意象，把照⽚⾥的刺點，疊加在舞者⾝體創作的刺點上，並於2013年舉行首演，是大馬表演藝術中少見的攝影＋舞蹈＋劇場疊加創作。
經過歲月洗禮的肉身，劉銘和黃志雄通過肢體與心的重新對話。讓過去與現在再次撞擊，直接的連接與表達，凝視定格下的流動與改變——內與外。黑與白。靜與動。瞬間與流動。意像與形式。獨白與對話。重建與創新。
攝影，是在凝視之中用定格留住的瞬間捕捉；舞蹈，則是許多刹那流動組成的情感傳遞。在欣賞照片的構圖意境，又或者舞蹈肢體的张力表現，每個觀者都可以從中找到屬於自己共情的心靈衝擊——刺點。
在舞者又一次的情感梳理與導演的重新架構下，在觀賞者張眼凝視與閉眼回神之間，這些刺點將會一一浮現，以不一樣的方式，刺中新的命點。
A dance-theatre hybrid inspired by photography works
Presented by Pentas Project Theatre Production, "Double Punctum" is directed by Artistic Director Loh Kok Man, with dancers Ming Low and Wong Jyh Shyong joining forces once again to present “White Paper”, a dance-theatre hybrid inspired by Pam Lim’s photography works.
"Double Punctum" originated from photographers Pam Lim and William Mok, who - during their photography trips to China’s Xia Pu and Jiuzhaigou - discovered that the natural world captured by lens conveyed many unique styles and powerful stage imagery. This inspired them to invite director Loh Kok Man and dancer Ming Low to Jiuzhaigou in an early winter, where they closely observed through the lens: tiny movements of flowers and trees, the sound of wind across the lake, and the subtle changes of ground frost. Using photography from Xia Pu and Jiuzhaigou as material, they extended the imagery into a work where the puncta in the photos were layered upon the dancers’ body movements. The result was the premiere of “Double Punctum” in 2013, a rare photography-dance-theatre hybrid in the Malaysian performing arts scene.
2013’s performance of “Double Punctum” featured two works, “Sand” and “White Paper”. Dancer Wong Jyh Shyong won Best Dancer at the 11th BOH Cameronian Arts Awards for his performance in this production, which was also nominated for Best Stage Design and Best Lighting Design in the same awards . After a decade of culminating, director Loh Kok Man reflecting on creation and time, and the struggles with them, chose to restructure and refine “White Paper”. The original dancers were invited back to perform, and Will Kok engaged this time to create a documentary about the production.
Seasoned by the passage of time, the bodies of Ming Low and Wong Jyh Shyong will engage in a renewed dialogue of movement and emotion. The work brings the past and present into entropy, in the most direct relation to and expression of the theme. It contemplates the flow and change in what is captured — internal x external ；black x white；stillness x motion；fleeting x flow； imagery x form； monologue x dialogue；reconstruction x creation.
Photography captures fleeting movements through still images; dance conveys emotions through moving stills. Whether appreciating the imagery of a photo composition or the expanse in dance movements, each viewer can experience their own emotional impact—the "punctum".
Roland Barthes once said that every photograph has a punctum — a point that pricks the viewer's emotions, stirring bittersweet memories. When photography meets performing arts (dance and theatre), it is a meeting of punctum with punctum. What kind of new sparks emerge when these puncta collide? <Double Punctum> 2013
With original music by Ng Chor Guan, stage design by Pam Lim, lighting design by Loh Kok Man, and an all new costume concept designed by Quito Neng, “Double Punctum” allows the audience to discover new collisions and sparks between imagery and form, space and body. It invites reflection on life under double, creating a new punctum. Puncta cannot be created in isolation; they exist in the collision between the gazed image and the gaze. Puncta hide within the scars of time and space, residing in the body's nameless imprints and deep memories.
Through the dancers’ renewed emotional dialogue and the director’s restructured vision, these puncta will resurface, revealing themselves in different ways, piercing through to new life points as the audience gazes with open eyes or reflects with closed ones.

Loh Kok Man is a theatre director, actor, lighting designer, stage designer, and an experienced theatre acting coach. In 2005, he founded the Pentas Project Theatre Production, a team dedicated to building bridges for artistic exchanges across various disciplines. Loh has won the Malaysia BOH Cameronian Arts Awards for "Best Director," "Best Lighting Design," and "Best Stage Design." His works are known for integrating multiple elements of theatre - particularly through the interaction of visuals, lighting, sound, physicality, and the dramatic structure of theatre - to enrich the exploration of theatre’s visual space and time. Loh believes that collaborations, across media and/or cultures, allow artists to cross pollinate and culminatively break new grounds. His early works had a strong postmodern experimental approach, adept at using poetic logic to develop the potential of movement and space. He later shifted towards text-based works, delving into the intersections of diverse cultures, extracting their essences, and embarking on a journey to create a unique contemporary theatre aesthetic.
From 2002 to 2005, he was invited by Tokyo’s Setagaya Theatre to participate in a three-year "Asian Contemporary Theatre Exchange Programme." In 2005, he received a scholarship from the Asian Cultural Council in the U.S. for a six-month study trip. In 2013, he was awarded a scholarship by the Goethe-Institut for a one-month study trip in Berlin. Loh is frequently invited to participate in international collaborations, visiting Japan, Korea, India, Germany, the Philippines, Shanghai, Thailand, Singapore, Taiwan, New York, Cambodia, Macau, and so on, to perform and for exchanges.
Some of his directorial works include "The Brotherhood" (2023), "The Tales of Dream" (2022), "The Swordfish, Then The Concubine" (2022/2016), "The Tragicomedy Of Errors" (2018), "Red Demon" (2015), "The Lost and The Ecliptic" (2007/2010), "A Modern Woman Called Ang Tau Mui" (2011/2018), "Double Punctum" (2013), "Animal Farm" (2008/2011), and "The Games Of Polyamory Life" (2020).
