# Frightening Fleshy Faces Han Hyo Seok's Artwork is Not Meant for the Dinner Table By Harris Jay Rosenberg Alterman | Published 2012-01-24 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/han-hyo-seok References: [sweet-station](http://sweet-station.com/blog/2012/01/zeitgeist-by-han-hyo-seok/) & [artside.org](http://www.artside.org/eng/artist/artist_view.php?num=43) The fleshy faces of Han Hyo Seok look like something that would be in a butcher shop on an [alien planet](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alien-vases) where they feast on humans. When art buffs say they are looking for [art in its rawest form](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/out-of-orifice), it doesn't get much rawer than this. The [meaty masks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pantlers-rations) all appear to be quite somber (it could be the fact that they are made out of meat). One can see in the eyes of the faces that they're gloomy and looking for some kind of escape. While shocking and grotesque to look at, Han Hyo Seok's meat art reflects the deep emotions of humans. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.2/10 - Popularity: 46% | Activity: 13% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Edible Art:** Opportunity to integrate unconventional food mediums as a new form of art. - **Organic Expressionism:** Opportunity for organic-based art forms using natural elements and materials for greater emotional depth. - **Raw Emotion:** Opportunity to use unconventional mediums to create new forms of emotionally raw art. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Culinary Arts:** Incorporation of meat and other unconventional food mediums as an artistic approach to cuisine and presentation. - **Fine Arts:** Increased exploration and incorporation of organic-based materials in art forms. - **Marketing:** Opportunity to use unconventional mediums to create memorable marketing campaigns that resonate emotionally. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Distorted Burger Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ailloween.md) - [Digital Archetype Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/christian-rex-van-minnen-1.md) - [Otherworldly Wooden Art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wooden-sculptures-1.md) - [Hyperrealistic Food Art Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/looks-delicious.md) - [Human Embraced-Inspired Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wallmounted-sculpture.md) - [Apocalypse Post Pandemic Art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/contemporary-urban-art.md) - [Stunning Origami Portraits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/origami-portaits.md) - [Surreal Love-Themed Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/joakim-ojanen.md) - [Raunchy Anime-Inspired Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/manuela-soto-sosa.md)
