Sunderland will host a work of art that is made up of all the national flags of countries where homosexuality is illegal as part of the international LGBTQIA+ conference being held in June.
The Amsterdam Rainbow Dress is an everchanging and evolving piece of art, as when a country adopts legislation that is inclusive to LGBTGIA+ people, their respective flag is replaced on the dress with a rainbow flag.
After being photographed in several locations across the world including Amsterdam, San Francisco, Madrid and Athens, while sharing its message on inclusion and equal rights, the dress will now arrive at the National Glass Centre at the University of Sunderland on June 20.
