They are leaving childhood, but are not yet adults, a time permeated with change. Girls, trying to grow into their skin. ’Fioritura’ explores the lives of ten young women who live in the south of Italy, in Matera. The story is about the challenges they face as they grow into womanhood and the strengths they posses by themselves and through the intimate relationships they have with each other.

In May 2019, Laura Bisgaard Krogh and Mads Greve were invited to the European Cultural City, Matera in Italy for an artistic residency in the town. They were a part of a project launched by the Municipality of Matera and Canon Europe, who during the spring invited one student and one teacher from 28 European schools of photography to Matera to work on individual stories.
The 56 photo projects are exhibited in Matera from the 20th of September and will run till the 22nd of October.
