‘Queer-ways: Retracing Queer Footprints’ is a community arts initiative that shares the queer history of Australia, combining stories from the past and present into permanent, interactive records. Fusing archive materials with community consultation and immersive experiences, the Queer-ways initiative generates accessible ways of presenting tangible and intangible heritage to illuminate and contest mainstream narratives.

Queer-ways has retraced the queer footprints of Melbourne in Augmented Reality maps, St Kilda in an interactive mural and the City of Yarra through a series of self-led audio walking tours. They have also charted the queer history of Mildura, Wodonga, Shepparton, Ballarat, Geelong and Daylesford to represent the often-untold stories of regional Victoria’s rainbow communities.

Public Record Office Victoria hosts Queer-ways co-creator LUCIANO in conversation with Gayathri Wijesekera, founder of design and marketing agency Rik and Ralph, to explore how they unite design, history and community to bring to life archive materials.
