Brutal Beauty: The Great Book of Insects
In 2020 Sandro wrote and illustrated the comic The Great Book of Insects for Brutal Beauty, a label for art, skateboarding and wearables, and made ten drawings based on it.
The story: long ago some insects decided to live in a different way and became people. Lonely, they built cities, then cafés and restaurants to feel together at mealtimes, then drains, wires and mobile phones to connect their homes. They stayed lonely all the same — and will, as long as they do not realise that they are not insects any more and just have to live as humans.
The little fork from the comic became a skateboard deck. Four drawings became T-shirts — the fork, a red beetle, clouds and a house of pipes — and Sandro also designed a Brutal Beauty Logo X T-shirt.
