# Spiraling Human Structure The Do Ho Suh Karma Exhibit Features Ascending Bodies By Jordy E | Published 2013-02-27 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/do-hu-suh-karma References: [mymodernmet](http://www.mymodernmet.com/profiles/blogs/marat-akhmetaleyev-chebarkul-meteorite-photography) & [lehmannmaupin](http://www.lehmannmaupin.com/artists/do-ho-suh) The Do Ho Suh Karma exhibit has been made on behalf of the critically acclaimed Korean artist. Suh's Cause & Effect installation drew quite a bit of attention to his portfolio, and he has here focused again on the ties between human relationships. Karma features a series of male structures that blind each other with their hands. As they unfold into one another in a vertical manner, Suh points to the connection between the paths followed by multiple generations, blindly succeeding those of the past. There is however much room for interpretation here as this is only one take on Karma. In any case, the piece is certainly provocative and emotionally stirring for anyone who comes into contact with the display. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.2/10 - Popularity: 49% | Activity: 9% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Modern](https://www.trendhunter.com/modern) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Vertical Installations:** The trend of creating large-scale vertical installations that explore themes of human relationships offers opportunities for disruptive innovation in architecture, interior design and public art. - **Provocative Art:** A trend towards creating emotionally stirring art installations that challenge our perspectives and understanding of the world presents opportunities for disruptive innovation in the field of art and museum curation. - **Interpretive Exhibits:** Creating exhibits that offer multiple interpretations and perspectives on complex themes offers opportunities for disruptive innovation in the fields of museum curation, education and experiential marketing. ### Who This Affects Most - **Art:** The Karma exhibit showcases opportunities for innovation in creating provocative and emotionally stirring art installations that challenge our understanding of the world. - **Museum Curation:** Creating exhibits that offer multiple interpretations and perspectives on complex themes presents opportunities for innovation in museum curation. - **Architecture:** The trend of creating large-scale vertical installations that explore themes of human relationships presents opportunities for innovation and experimentation in architecture and interior design. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Organic Spiral Pavilions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pasona-natureverse-pavilion.md) - [Artful Meditative Sculptural Caves](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/drawing-on-space.md) - [Hopeful Design Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/evolving-harmony.md) - [Artful Suspended Fashion Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/invisible-figures.md) - [Human Embraced-Inspired Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wallmounted-sculpture.md) - [Blooming Clustered Art Forms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/structural-botany.md) - [Intervening Staircase Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/meet-me-here.md) - [Architectural Wall Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/humanise-wall.md) - [Sculptural Experimental Artforms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ladder-series.md)
