Writing as Material Practice - Substance, Surface and Medium

by Kathryn Piquette et al.

Fifteen case studies explore the artefactual nature of writing — the ways in which materials, techniques, color, scale, orientation and visibility inform the creation of inscribed objects and spaces, as well as structure subsequent engagement, perception and meaning making. Covering a temporal span of some 5000 years, from c.3200 BCE to the present day.
