This type of art was first intoduced in the 14th century by an artist named Eronomous. Bosch., a Flemish artist who used to paint obscure, as we know know 'or think' were religious messages, as no one has really interpreted their meaning even know. The latest theory put forward was that he painted these caricatures to make people look twice, to try to work out what they were all about, as most people were illiterate in those days. I wonder if that is the reason for these present day 'structures'?
