# Perverse Anatomical Portraits Adam Green Looks Beyond the Typical 'Hot Chick' in His Artwork By Vasiliki Marapas | Published 2014-12-16 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/adam-green References: [coolhunting](http://www.coolhunting.com/culture/adam-green-hot-chicks.php) & [theholenyc](http://theholenyc.com/2013/12/21/adam-green-and-friends-hot-chicks/) Artist and musician Adam Green (he's one half of the band The Moldy Peaches) has returned to the [art scene](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dirty-looks) with his latest series, 'Hot Chicks,' on display at [NYC's The Hole Gallery](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/just-like-heaven-art-exhibition). Green began drawing his "hot chicks" while on tour, jokingly trying to create something his bandmates would find arousing. When the tour ended, he was compelled to continue, and thus, the series was born. Rather than adhering to conventional beauty standards, Green's [oil, crayon and pencil canvases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/painting-exhibition) explore the female form in a unique and abstract way; one that is, in some ways, slightly perverse. Most importantly, Green's work is not meant to be "hot"; it's meant to question what "hot" is in terms of physicality, sexuality and femininity. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.9/10 - Popularity: 49% | Activity: 60% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Reimagined Beauty Standards:** Opportunity to challenge traditional notions of physical attractiveness and redefine beauty through unconventional artistic expressions. - **Abstract Feminine Identity:** Exploration of the complexities and nuances of femininity through abstract representations, creating a space for self-reflection and questioning of societal norms. - **Art as Social Commentary:** Utilizing art as a tool to provoke thought and initiate conversations about sexuality, the female form, and societal expectations. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Art:** Leveraging non-traditional artistic techniques and subject matter to push boundaries and redefine the understanding of beauty. - **Fashion:** Incorporating abstract and unconventional depictions of femininity into fashion designs, challenging normative standards and promoting inclusivity. - **Marketing and Advertising:** Exploring alternative representations of beauty in marketing campaigns, embracing diverse body types and celebrating genuine self-expression. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Glamorous Artful Bronze Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sweet-jane.md) - [Raunchy Anime-Inspired Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/manuela-soto-sosa.md) - [Apocalypse Post Pandemic Art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/contemporary-urban-art.md) - [Surreal Love-Themed Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/joakim-ojanen.md) - [Subversive Artist Massage Parlours](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/elmgreen-dragset.md) - [Sexuality-Exploring Artful Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rude-arts-club.md) - [Sex-Positive Art Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/carne-bollente-3.md) - [Visually Morphing Muses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/glitchy-bitches.md) - [Dark Abstracted Art Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-minyades-exhibition.md)
