Between Line & Form Exhibition

Between Line & Form is an exhibition of hand-drawn architectural sketches by Ar. Rene Tan, presented in conjunction with the RT+Q Drawing Prize at NUS. Spanning over 40 years, the showcase features lead-on-paper sketches, mechanical pencil on vellum, ink and Pantone on Mylar, pen parti diagrams, ballpoint design esquisses, and sketchbooks on loan from the National Archives of Singapore. These drawings trace a personal journey through observation, discovery, improvisation, and speculation. From “Covid Drawings” exploring interior space to “Otto Wagner Drawings” on proportion and detail, “Pantone Drawings” on light and shadow, “Travel Sketches” on place and memory, and “Sketchbook Etudes” tracking design ideas, each work embodies what Michael Graves called “tangible speculations.” Between Line & Form invites visitors to reflect on the enduring value of hand sketching in an increasingly digital design culture, and to appreciate the liberating journey between each line and the next.
