Animabilia is an exploration of the role of aesthetics in the relationship with animals. Stunning traits such as iridescent scales, colorful coats, and bright feathers generate in humans a spontaneous impulse of wonder, which translates into practices of appropriation, imitation, and objectification. Over ten visual stories trace the modes of this sublimation: through a collection of images involving naturalistic subjects such as taxidermies, dioramas, zoos, and tropical houses, Animabilia outlines the expressions of this fascination, focusing on ancient practices that find contemporary translation today.

Edizione limitata / 200 copie

Animabilia è un’indagine sul ruolo dell’estetica nel rapporto con l’animale. Tratti stupefacenti come squame iridescenti, manti variopinti, piume brillanti, generano nell’uomo un impulso di spontanea meraviglia, che si traduce in pratiche di appropriazione, imitazione ed oggettivazione. Oltre dieci racconti visivi percorrono le modalità di questa sublimazione: attraverso una raccolta di immagini che coinvolgono soggetti naturalistici come tassisermie, diorami, zoo e tropicari, Animabila delinea le espressioni di questa fascinazione, concentrandosi su pratiche antiche che trovano oggi traduzione nel contemporaneo.
