Writing Over is a drawing atlas which focuses on the relationship between the gestures of drawing, writing and map-making. The book serves as companion volume to the instal­la­tion Writing Over, which was shown in 2012 at Netwerk in Aalst, Belgium. The draw­ings which are partly derived from a personal and collective history are rendered in different types of land­scapes and maps. These are accom­panied by an ‘Atlas Archive’; a study of surfaces used in this carto­graphic process – sketches, stamps, media images, engraving plates, notations – and a short story by Louis Lüthi, entitled ‘Unalaska Alaska’.
