In Bloom

Curated by 3/3, the book on Italian same-sex couples and children born thank to Assisted reproductive technology (ART) has been published by Postcart, with the title In Bloom. It is one of the first long-term photographic projects on LGBT families in Europe, and the first in Italy. The project, while referring to the Italian context and directly inspired by it, testifies the situation of LGBT rights in other countries through the journeys of the Italian families who got married abroad or have carried out the artificial insemination in Europe, Canada and U.S.

The project received the support of Amnesty International Italian section.
