# Scandalous Fashiontography Andy Tan Captures Fishnets, Femmes & Phone Booths By Nika Kubiak | Published 2009-05-10 | Naughty Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/andy-tan References: [ericelenbaas.nl](http://www.ericelenbaas.nl/main.php?g2_itemId=8069) Netherlands-based photographer Andy Tan has an impressive portfolio that is full of sexy, [provocative images](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/borntostandout-fall-2024). Tan is an artist who thrives upon existing notions of [feminine representation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mariemurs-judge-me-guilty) in order to play with themes of female sexuality. The most interesting piece of Tan’s photography is the way he [uses light](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sculptural-lighting-design) to create a kind of burlesque atmosphere. His photography manifests a bizarre sex appeal, and Andy Tan creates essentially an entire female fantasy universe within a single photo. Andy Tan's works draw heavily upon adult’s stories and characters with erotic narratives that can shock at times. Each piece is given a brand new storyline, but with the same seductive--and, at times, dangerous--subliminal message. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.4/10 - Popularity: 87% | Activity: 68% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Naughty](https://www.trendhunter.com/naughty) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Erotic Photography:** There is opportunity to create more artistic and diverse erotic content in the photography industry. - **Boudoir Photography:** The exploration of themes of sexuality and femininity is increasingly popular in boudoir photography. - **Lighting Techniques:** There is a growing interest in innovative lighting techniques that can be used to create atmosphere and emotion in photography. ### Who This Affects Most - **Fashion Photography:** There is an opportunity to create provocative fashion campaigns that push the boundaries and explore new representations of femininity. - **Fine Art Photography:** The fine art photography industry can benefit from exploring themes of sexuality and gender through a diverse range of perspectives and styles. - **Adult Entertainment Industry:** Andy Tan's work demonstrates the potential to create engaging and artistic erotic narratives within the adult entertainment industry. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Sexuality-Exploring Artful Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rude-arts-club.md) - [Raunchy Anime-Inspired Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/manuela-soto-sosa.md) - [Feminine Rebellion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/songs-of-siren.md) - [Unique Artistic Books](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/amusebouche.md) - [Disruptive Fashion Art Galleries](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dirty-looks.md) - [Body Artwork-Inspired Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/body-tattoo.md) - [Naughty Holiday Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/diesels-xxxmas.md) - [Sex-Positive Art Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/carne-bollente-3.md) - [Cinematic Thriller-Inspired Runways](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jw-anderson-fw-2024.md)
