Abstract
Queering Virtual Space is a project which visualizes architectural and natural environments using virtual reality software. In this thesis, I present my research on the
transference of traditional media as queering artifacts into virtual space. Displayed from a first-person perspective, the thesis sets the narrative of established, normative, architectural zones in virtual space and subsequently finds ways to come to terms with their inevitable collapse from a queer, ludic perspective.
