These artworks by artist Nate Page feature lovely [carvings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/women-carvers) cast out of [fabulous magazines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/maczine) such as [Vogue](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nft-collection2). The collection of carved out magazines focuses heavily on eyes of various models featured in the paper pages. Perhaps the artworks are a statement about beauty being in the eye of the beholder. The series by Page is definitely something worth talking about. Take a browse through the gallery above to see why for yourself. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.4/10 - Popularity: 63% | Activity: 60% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Pop Culture](https://www.trendhunter.com/popculture) > [Media](https://www.trendhunter.com/media) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Artistic Magazine Carvings:** Exploring the artistic potential of magazine pages through intricate carvings. - **Revitalizing Print Media:** Bringing new life to traditional print media by transforming magazines into unique artworks. - **Beauty in Unconventional Forms:** Challenging conventional beauty standards by highlighting the beauty of carved magazine models. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Art and Design:** Innovative artists can find new ways to create unique and captivating artworks using unconventional materials like magazines. - **Print Media:** Print media companies can collaborate with artists to explore new possibilities for their publications and engage audiences in innovative ways. - **Fashion and Beauty:** Fashion and beauty brands can leverage the unconventional approach of carved magazine models to challenge stereotypes and promote inclusivity. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Stunning Origami Portraits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/origami-portaits.md) - [Digital Archetype Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/christian-rex-van-minnen-1.md) - [Sculptural Paper Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fragmenti.md) - [Wooden Identity Art Forms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hughmanity.md) - [Crystal-Adorned Crushed Cans](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sam-keller.md) - [Geometric Wooden Art Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aleph-geddis.md) - [Dynamic NFT Magazines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vogue-singapore-magazine.md) - [Upcycled Object Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nendo-and-daniel-arsham.md) - [Sculptural Mixed-Media Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/folded-echoes.md)
