Price’s current collection is themed around the rapid growth and expansion of the earth's population and, as a result, the dwindling supply of energy resources. Each piece is carefully and expertly hand-molded with [fire-blasted glass or ceramic](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/light-into-darkness). The detail Price is able to capture in each of his pieces is simply outstanding. All the [glass and ceramic sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sculptural-glass-bottles) featured are elegantly layered, which speaks to the adding pressure of global expansion within such a fragile structure. The luscious tones used are a stark contrast to the gray of the ceramic. Each sculpture also features a creative twisting design, making each angle of view an interesting new viewpoint. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.4/10 - Popularity: 91% | Activity: 93% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Fire-blasted Sculptures:** Using fire to mold sculptures creates a unique and stunning visual effect. - **Population Growth Art:** Artists highlighting the environmental impact of population growth with their creations could continue to become popular. - **Layered Sculptures:** Artists experimenting with layers in their sculptures could lead to new and innovative techniques for creating 3D art. ### Who This Affects Most - **Art:** Artists creating unique and environmentally conscious pieces may see increased demand and interest. - **Glass and Ceramic Manufacturing:** Manufacturers experimenting with fire-blasting techniques could create new and exciting products. - **Environmental Awareness:** Companies promoting awareness around the environment could use pieces such as Price's sculptures as a symbol of their mission. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Human Torso-Inspired Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lene-bdker.md) - [Expanded Ceramic Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/future-fossils-1.md) - [Surreal Love-Themed Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/joakim-ojanen.md) - [Limited 3D-Printed Ceramic Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dyadic-series.md) - [Artful Bright Glass Vessels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/get-your-rocks-off-honey.md) - [Glass Geometry Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/glass-collection.md) - [Gem-Like Sculptural Art Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cylindrical-lenses.md) - [Climate-Awareness Soft Art Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dreamstones.md) - [Ethereal Light Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/peter-kovacsy.md)
