Set within the architecture of Antonio Citterio, at the Ermengildo Zegna global headquarters Lucy + Jorge Orta have imagined an immersive installation comprised of wall drawings representing a rainforest-scape of imaginary species invented by the artists following their expeditions to the Amazon. Fabulae Naturae was commissioned by ZegnArt to coincide with Expo Milan 2015 and forms the backdrop for the artists' performance Symphony for Absent Wildlife.
