# Bizarre Glove Art Claire Watson Creates Rather Freaky Oddball Artworks By Meghan Young | Published 2011-03-17 | Unique Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/claire-watson References: [neatorama](http://www.neatorama.com/2011/03/15/wonderfully-bizarre-gloves-by-claire-watson/) & [clairewatson.net](http://clairewatson.net/) I know that hands can be extremely expressive, but until I stumbled upon Claire Watson's [bizarre creations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/anima), I never would have believed that gloves could be too. Perhaps one of the odder art series I have come across in a long while, these Kid Gloves, are surely bizarre. Not only does Claire Watson re-imagine and re-interpret the glove, but she also does so in a very unique and strange way. From creating gloves within gloves to molding mannequin-like extensions and more, she has put together a highly intriguing and impressive portfolio of work. With [leather, sawdust, wires, clay, porcelain pieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/folded-echoes) and more, Claire Watson's creations showcase great talent and imagination. Check out the featured gallery for some of these unique yet intriguing artworks. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.3/10 - Popularity: 80% | Activity: 41% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Unique](https://www.trendhunter.com/unique) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Bizarre Art Interpretations:** There is an opportunity to create otherworldly art interpretations that do not limit to traditional materials - **Reimagining Clothing Items:** Exploring different ways to manipulate clothing can turn them into art pieces that are both functional and aesthetic. - **Unconventional Art Materials:** Artists can seek new materials to use and experiment with, such as gloves and other clothing items, as a way to create innovative artworks. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Art:** Artists can use the concept of using gloves as a canvas to create novel art pieces that represent unconventional ideas - **Fashion:** Fashion Designers and stylists can use gloves as a source of inspiration to design unique, never-seen-before clothing items - **Retail:** Retailers can increase brand awareness by offering personalized gloves that resemble different pieces of artwork. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Human Embraced-Inspired Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wallmounted-sculpture.md) - [Human Hair-Made Pots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/range-of-pots.md) - [Innovative Ceramic Tableware](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ceramic-tableware1.md) - [Sculptural Knitted Objects](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sculptural-knitted-objects.md) - [Handcrafted Jewelry Brands](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pretty-weird.md) - [Digital Archetype Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/christian-rex-van-minnen-1.md) - [Mesmerizing Sculpture Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mesmerizing-sculpture.md) - [Striking Urban Wildlife Art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/clare-allin.md) - [Experimental Pottery Vessels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gourd-project.md)
