Pregnancy is the most authentic story of metamorphosis.

Life itself is an endless flow of change, nothing remains fixed, and every moment belongs uniquely to the here and now.
Pregnancy shows us this profoundly, inviting us to embrace transformation with openness and trust.
It is a passage, an unfolding, a dance between what was and what will be.

This project was born from the desire to offer women a space for deep connection with themselve, helping them to embrace their body and soul transformation, in a time of profound change.

In the creation of these images, we surrender to the unknown. Every gesture, every movement is a silent dialogue with the expanding life. There is no control, only trust, a conscious surrender to the flow of existence. This is how photography becomes a revelation, a witness to a transformation that moves through and beyond us.

Moving in synergy, the images emerge, like traces of a passage. Because life is change, and nothing teaches us this more than pregnancy.

Laetitia Farellacci (1977) is an Italian-French photographer whose research has developed over more than twenty-five years as a space for personal and visual exploration.
Growing up in the silence of the darkroom, she explored various photographic languages until she found her own expressive territory in self-portraiture and the forms of nature. Her practice investigates themes related to roots, identity, and memory, gradually opening up to a vision in which the separation between subject and world is blurred.
Her Corsican origins have profoundly influenced her sensibility: the island where she grew up until adolescence continues to permeate her work through atmospheres, contrasts, light, and matter.

The self-portrait becomes for her an instinctive space for experimentation, in which the body is an instrument of listening and crossing over. Each project stems from a process of perception and inner transformation that translates into a visual narrative capable of going beyond the individual story, opening up to a broader and shared dimension of experience.
