    John Clang Interview - ST Life! 25-06-2007

    That raise an interesting point for me :-) I have always stressed in several interviews that I don't carry camera around with me. If something magical happens infront of me, I would rather sense/experience it with my entire body than trying to capture it with my camera. It is important for me...

    John Clang Interview - ST Life! 25-06-2007

    A correction. What I meant was that the lovely reporter is not Art critic nor Art writer. Her angle and perspective will naturally directed to what she thinks is an interesting story. I have no problem with her and I do like her :-) Lovesss*Clang

    John Clang Interview - ST Life! 25-06-2007

    I did make myself available in the gallery at certain time for people to ask me questions. I think it is more intimate. As for workshop...I prefer more intimate setting but may consider something of this sort in future. *Clang

    John Clang Interview - ST Life! 25-06-2007

    I have my personal thought on this which I think is interesting to share :-) The interviewer is a young, beautiful and intelligent lady who is not familiar with my work or art in general. She is no art critic or writer. I'm fully aware that she is interested in my rags to riches story when I...

    Dear Harry...Many thanks for your kind words. You are absolutely right that it will be nice for everyone to figure out what my pictures say to them. I produce my images purely for myself and have always use them as a reflection of my life and my thoughts. They are very personal and it acts like...

    Do find time to visit the gallery to check out the work :-) As for my weight....hahaha....I have been this skinny since 2002 or 2003. It's not the last heated clubsnap discussion that gives me depression and hence drastic weight loss ;-) I probably work too hard. Lovesss*Clang

    Clang: A White Book

    Haha...I probably will try to ask Jon tay and Xuan Ong to be around on the 24th June, if I remember. I've pretty bad memory lately :-) As for being 'Daos', I do come across like that at times. I'm very passionate and when I give advise, I do come across very direct and honest. Only because I...

    Clang: A White Book

    There's an interesting story behind Roy Zhang :-) When he approached me to be my assistant, he was still in NAFA. IIRC, it was a month or two before his graduation. I told him if he seriouslly wanted to be trained by me, he will have to leave the school right away and give up his interior...

    Clang: A White Book

    Roy Zhang was my assistant for many years. In fact he was trained by me from scratch. I was the only one he assisted. I'm proud of his success in Singapore :-) I remembered he was not exactly talented when he first join me but he is very determined to make it. I was very strict to him as I...

They are both retired. As for younger photographers, Leslie Kee and ChuanDo are 2 person I know for...
