Hidden Constellations: Mapped and Unmapped Queer Sapphic Space in NYC

Hidden Constellations: Mapped and Unmapped Queer Sapphic Space in NYC

Hidden Constellations is a feminist spatial practice that maps queer sapphic life in New York City through memory, narrative, archival traces, and everyday routes. Rather than treating the city as a neutral container, the project asks how intimacy, safety, desire, loss, and belonging shape the spaces people inhabit and remember. Its website brings together maps, stories, and spatial research to make visible histories that are often dispersed, ephemeral, or omitted from records. The project extends into the related published research paper presented at DRS 2026 (https://doi.org/10.21606/drs.2026.302).
