'O Face' Editorials

Giulio Sciorio's 'Faces of Ecstasy' Captures the Heat of the Moment

— August 23, 2009 — Naughty
At first glance, Giulio Sciorio's 'Faces of Ecstasy' looks somewhat tame. A glance at the shoot's title, however, turns these open-mouthed photographs into something far more naughty.

There isn't any nudity whatsoever in Giulio Sciorio's 'Faces of Ecstasy' photo shoot, but somehow imagining all these models in the heat of the moment makes their 'O faces' easy to recognize. Creepy, or sort of hot? You decide.

Implications - People are fascinated by sex. Therefore, photographic series as well as other forms of art are able to capture and showcase sexual activities (such as the 'Faces of Ecstacy') in an attempt to satisfy this fascination. The more intimate the sexual moment is, the more likely people will want to see it.
Trend Themes
1. Intimate Photography - There is a growing interest in capturing intimate moments through photography, creating opportunities for photographers to experiment with new visual expressions.
2. Sexual Art - The interest in sexual activities portrayed in art continues to captivate audiences with increasing demand, creating disruptive innovation opportunities for artists to express themselves through this genre.
3. New Erotic Visuals - There is a desire for new and innovative ways to represent sexual arousal and ecstasy visually, creating opportunities for graphic designers and visual artists to explore new frontiers in this space.
Industry Implications
1. Photography - As interest in intimate photography grows, photographers may find opportunities in weddings, boudoir shoots, and other forms of artistic expression.
2. Erotic Art - The rise of sexual art creates new demands, including sculpture, painting, and other forms of visual expression, presenting unique opportunities for artists and galleries.
3. Graphic Design - As demand grows for new and innovative ways to portray sexual arousal and ecstasy, graphic designers and visual artists can produce cutting-edge designs for use in everything from advertising to social media to fashion.
