Remapping Tales of Desire: writing across the abyss, by Karen Atkinson and Andrea Liss

This catalog publication was created as a campanion work to the exhibition by Karen Atkinson titled Remapping Tales of Desire. It is meant to address more complex issues both within the exhibition and beyond it.

It explores issues of language over a period of 500 years, juxtaposing texts and images that continue to shape the way we view the travel industry, which of course continues to use the images of women's bodies to sell tourism. It uses a map from the 16th century, a radical step beyond it's time, to illustrate an alternative to five centuries of practice.

It is available from the artist.
