If [weird and wacky art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/colorama) is your forte, then the artwork of Colorado brothers Andrew and Peter Sutherland being displayed at the [New York ATM Gallery](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/whataburger-museum-of-art) will probably do it for you.

The artwork of Andrew and Peter Sutherland is called “Amateur Hour” and it explores the different societies that we live in today as well as the difference between the business and the leisure sides of our lives.

I’m not quite sure what a man holding the body of a giant anaconda has to do with today’s society, but then again, I am neither an art critic or lover.
