Synopsis

The Worlds of Georgette Chen, a three-part doc­u­drama will premier on 29 April 2015 on Chan­nel News­Asia. It spans across three peri­ods, giving viewers an insight of the dra­matic worlds of Geor­gette Chen. These periods include the French period from 1927 to 1933 where she received her early art education; the Chinese/Hong Kong period from 1934 to 1948; and the Penang/Singapore period from 1950 to 1980.

Being inspired by her sur­round­ings, Geor­gette pro­duced por­traits and still lifes from each phase. She per­fec­ted her tech­nique and taught at the Nan­yang Academy of Fine Arts.

Rui En had initially felt intimidated by art thinking that it was a field beyond her. In preparation for her role as Georgette Chen, she researched the various documents and letters detailing the life of Georgette, and in the process discovered a personal connection with the artist.

At The Worlds of Georgette Chen press con this afternoon. No Star Awards questions, we were told. But we managed to squeeze in one rather harmless question: How does Rui En rate @katepang311's 'black face' impersonation? "She's not bad! But I'm better," she smiled. Of course. #theworldsofgeorgettechen #ruien #2015starawards
