Humanimalism

Morphed images of humans and animals charm and stir emotion

Implications - Animals have often been used in activist campaigns to stir emotion, but now brands and photographers in all industries are taking it one step further by humanizing animals in advertisements and art. Giving an animal human-like features, or vice versa, draws out emotive responses more so than simply placing an animal in a photograph. The viewer feels a more intense connection, and thus deeper engagement with the ad or artwork.

  1. Humanization of Animals — Brands and artists are humanizing animals with human-like features in all industries to draw out emotive responses.
  2. Humanimal Hybrids — Artists and photographers are creating hybrid images by merging humans and animals in unique and creative ways.
  3. Animal Activism — Brands are using animals as symbols to incite a response in order to raise awareness of animal rights.

Industry Implications

  2. Fashion — Humanimal hybrids have become a popular fashion trend in both clothing and accessories as a way to be unique and creative.
  3. Art & Entertainment — The use of humanimal hybrids in art and entertainment has become a popular way to draw attention and engage audiences.
