Footnote
Andrea Branzi created ‘Animali Domestici’ in the mid 1980s, a surreal collection that explored neo-primitive aesthetics, exploring the point where artificiality and nature converged, turning away from the highly stylised post-modern designs of the previous decades. The series explored industrial and rectilinear forms, combined with natural components, such as logs, wood offcuts and found objects.
