By building upon a field that has yet to merge digital work with such detailed human features, the Peruvian-born Kochi has managed to create an impressive and distinct brand. The Energy Beings images are haunting. Each picture features a range of [light-like installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/psychoacoustic-light-ensemble) that are reminiscent of skeletal human compositions.

Akin to the hominid's union with technology in all areas of society in the 21st century, the Kochi collection alludes to a contemporary oneness with technology. As far as the future goes, the Energy Beings sequence also acknowledges the potential for [further electronic manipulation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hofa-gallery). ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.5/10 - Popularity: 73% | Activity: 55% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: South America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Modern](https://www.trendhunter.com/modern) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Digital Art Personification:** Opportunity for artists to incorporate human-like features into digital artwork, creating a unique and compelling brand. - **Integration of Technology and Art:** Exploring the potential of merging technology and art to create visually stunning and thought-provoking compositions. - **Future of Electronic Manipulation:** Acknowledging the evolving possibilities of manipulating electronic art in the future, opening up new creative avenues. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Art and Design:** Artists can leverage personified digital art to create captivating and distinctive works, appealing to a wider audience. - **Technology and Innovation:** Opportunity for technological advancements to enhance the field of digital art and enable deeper integration with human-like features. - **Digital Marketing and Advertising:** Brands can embrace personified digital art as a unique form of visual storytelling, creating memorable and engaging campaigns. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [AI-Inspired Digital Art Programs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/evolving-perspectives.md) - [Mineral-Inspired Digital Art Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/neogene-collection.md) - [Otherworldly Wooden Art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wooden-sculptures-1.md) - [Whimsical Spirit Art Shows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/anima.md) - [Digital City-Inspired Art Works](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/grand-central-station.md) - [AI-Generated Retrofuturistic Objects](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/retrofuturistic-objects.md) - [Physics-Informed Digital Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/motion-sculpture.md) - [Biophilic Garden Lights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/digital-organism-lights.md) - [Fluid Function Art Exhibits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/optical-flow.md)
