Decapitated Pig Portraits

'The Dark Side of Light' by Danielle Tunstall is Brutally Bizzare

— January 10, 2011 — Art & Design
It wouldn't be a good idea to check out 'The Dark Side of Light' by Danielle Tunstall right before bedtime. This photoshoot features everything from blood-bathed geishas to suicidal hospital patients. You've been warned.

My favorite image from 'The Dark Side of Light' by Danielle Tunstall has to be the man screaming at the severed pig's head. Never before have I been so grossed out and intrigued at the same time. Check out all of Danielle Tunstall's brutal and bizarre images in the gallery above.
Trend Themes
1. Dark Art Photography - There is a growing trend for brutal and bizarre imagery in art and photography that cater to the darker side of life, death and the macabre, and could present an opportunity for artists and photographers to explore new creative approaches.
2. Grisly Imagery Normalization - A trend towards normalization of gruesome and macabre imagery in art and the media may create a new demand for content with shock value, challenging creatives to explore dark and unconventional imagery in ways never done before.
3. Gore Aesthetic - Dark art photography that conveys the beauty in violence and gore could become a trend as those with an appetite for shock value look for fresh, subversive content.
Industry Implications
1. Fine Art Photography - Photographers who specialize in grim and macabre subject matter may find new opportunities for their work as gore-inspired art gains wider acceptance.
2. Publishing and Media - Publishers and media houses could benefit from these trends as extreme and visceral imagery can grasp audiences attention and go viral generating more traffic and revenue.
3. Fashion and Design - Designers and fashion brands that tap into dark and macabre visuals may appeal to young and rebellious demographics looking for alternative fashion styles inspired by underground and niche aesthetics.
