The images portray women with sensual facial expressions and body language, with their eyes closed, lips lightly parted and hands clasped over themselves. The colorful water that surrounds them is complemented well by Marta Bevacqua's use of [vibrant props, glitter and strong makeup](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shells-jewel-collection) as well, making each subject appear as if they're immersed in a fantasy world. Many of the images are separated by [color palette](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/profiles-in-color), enabling Marta Bevacqua to show how different moods and meanings are generated with help from the different combinations. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.2/10 - Popularity: 78% | Activity: 39% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Symbolic Motifs in Photography:** Exploring the use of symbolic motifs in photography to create visual narratives and evoke emotions. - **Fantasy-immersive Portraiture:** Creating vibrant and dreamlike portraits that transport subjects and viewers into a fantasy world. - **Color Palette as Narrative Tool:** Utilizing color palettes in photography to convey different moods, meanings, and storytelling elements. ### Where This Applies - **Photography:** Leveraging symbolic motifs, fantasy elements, and color palettes to create unique and captivating photographic experiences. - **Fashion:** Incorporating vibrant props, glitter, and strong makeup to create visually striking and immersive fashion campaigns. - **Art:** Exploring the use of visual symbolism and color palettes to convey narratives and evoke emotions in artistic creations. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Human Nature-Themed Art Galleries](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sea-im-awake.md) - [Hand-Painted Watercolor Prints](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/emma-webster.md) - [Sub-Aquatic Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-imaginary-sea.md) - [Unique Artistic Books](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/amusebouche.md) - [AI-Generated Poetic Photo Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/emilio-alarcn.md) - [Vibrantly Colorful Dynamic Artwork](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kayla-rumpp.md) - [Summer-Inspired Photo Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/summer-dreaming-collection.md) - [Watercolor Stone-Based Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aquarel.md) - [Raunchy Anime-Inspired Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/manuela-soto-sosa.md)
