Eu Jin, Lim is an artist/ architect based in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Eu Jin has recently graduated from The Glasgow School of Arts and has gain graphical and architectural experience both locally and abroad. He has always been fascinated by the fine line between the sequential art of the graphic novels and the technical drawings of architectural orthographic blueprints. Being first exposed and influenced by the narrative qualities of comics/ manga as he was growing up, he now tries to bring them together in his architectural profession. The series of drawings is a continuing research that attempts to find the relationship between both the professions and how they would inform one and another in their productions. The work includes a narrative site analysis for a thesis based in Copenhagen, Denmark, a drawing experiment on Sir John Soane’s Museum, London and the most recent on the wondrous heritage Blue Mansion (Cheong Fatt Tze Mansion) in Penang, Malaysia.
The book titled ‘Drawing the Blue Mansion’ is the latest book project published in collaboration with Laurence Loh and Lin Lee Loh Lim (conservation architect) of the Blue Mansion, Penang. ‘The project is inspired by the iconic Cheong Fatt Tze Mansion aka The Blue Mansion. Sited in the World Heritage Site of George Town, this multiple award-winning edifice is testimony to the stunning brilliance of eclectic architecture in the Straits Settlements and has been a source of unending creativeness. This project continues the exploration of the fine line between architecture, orthographic drawings and the sequential art of graphic novels, sometimes known as ‘comics’. The plot is based on the romanticized daily life of Cheong Fatt Tze himself and his favoured 7th wife, Tan Tay Po.
