Adam Wallacavage has been featured on Trend Hunter before and now he's got a [new series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/colorama) called Dreamhome Heartaches.

For those familiar with Wallacavage's work, most will recognize his [octopus-inspired lights with tentacles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mini-sculptures) being the centerpiece. In Dreamhome Heartaches, he's created two new ones in red and black. These ones in comparisons to its predecessors have more of a slender look and are a little smaller. A new design from Wallacavage is the [skeletal elk chandelier](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nova-pendant-light) with the animals antlers holding the bulbs. It's got a Gothic macabre vibe for those who are into the darker stuff.

Adam Wallacavage's new works are currently on display at Corey Helford Gallery in Culver City. The exhibition will run from March 19 through April 6, 2011.
