*FLINTA: Female, Lesbian, Intersex, Non-binary, Agender

Routes and P(l)aces is a research-creation practice tracing women’s stories on foot through the English countryside. Its interventions geolocate FLINTA literature, heritage and theoretical framings across iconic and contested ground women have inherited and laid claim to including Cornwall, the Malvern Hills and Barnes in Richmond-Upon-Thames. The inquiry asks how such tensions are held, carried with and challenged through walking bodies.

These experiments in knowing and being are reflected in a printed zine and an Anarchive.

This is the anarchive: a work-in-progress, a countermap of encounters, a reference to enrich the subjects and walks in the zine.

It is neither a catalogue nor instructions for walking.

It is an invitation to discover more.


There are signposts, definitions, and tools to contextualize and enrich engagement with the walks and zines of Routes and P(l)aces: maps and GPX files, essays and explanations, photos and videos, field notes, journals, prose and other encounters.
