Pérez uses a [blood red chandelier](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fragmentos-de-mar) laying on top of [broken red shards of glass](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/light-into-darkness) to create the main focal point. When put together it portrays a scene of carrion being torn apart by crows. Some of the most powerful pieces of art are the ones that make the biggest impact. ‘Carroña’ is surely an impact piece with its blood red glass shooting away from the ground mimicking the splattering of blood. There’s something about the color of blood combined with a monochromatic setting that creates a vibrance that captures your attention. Javier Pérez uses his glass artwork in a way that truly is awe-inspiring. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.6/10 - Popularity: 95% | Activity: 95% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## 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 - **Macabre Art:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in creating unsettling and thought-provoking works of art. - **Blood Red Aesthetic:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in utilizing the color red to evoke strong emotions in visual media. - **Glass Sculptures:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in exploring the potential of glass as a medium for creating intricate and delicate artworks. ### Who This Affects Most - **Art and Design:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in expanding the boundaries of contemporary art and design. - **Interior Design:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in incorporating bold and eye-catching pieces of art into interior design. - **Glass Manufacturing:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in developing new techniques and technologies for creating complex glass sculptures and artwork. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Surreal Love-Themed Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/joakim-ojanen.md) - [Human Torso-Inspired Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lene-bdker.md) - [Scientifically-Accurate Glass Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/glass-microbiology.md) - [Crystal-Adorned Crushed Cans](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sam-keller.md) - [Almost-Extinct Animal Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fauna-series.md) - [Candy-Like Colorful Glass Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gele-series.md) - [Sculpturally Provocative Vases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vibrant-sculptural-vase.md) - [Otherworldly Wooden Art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wooden-sculptures-1.md) - [Broken-Aesthetic Sculpture Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brokenaesthetic-sculpture-collection.md)
