Romain created the dial of a watch/clock using the legs, arms and hands of underwear-clad models for the front cover. The back cover of the issue features an image showing the poses that the models had to endure in order to create the front cover shot. Romain Laurent called upon the help of Jose Alves / Le Moulin de Doc for the retouching of the image. The rest of the images in the gallery feature images by Romain Laurent for previous issues of WAD mag. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.1/10 - Popularity: 50% | Activity: 34% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: 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 - **Body Clocks:** Developing new ways of measuring time using body parts as the dial. - **Human Sculptures:** Creating art by incorporating human bodies as the medium. - **Living Canvas:** Exploring ways of combining the human body with digital art for living displays. ### Who This Affects Most - **Fashion Industry:** Incorporating new and creative ways of showcasing clothes using the human body. - **Advertising Industry:** Exploring the use of unique and innovative images to capture the attention of the public and promote products or services. - **Art Industry:** Exploring ways of combining the human body with different mediums to create unique, visually pleasing displays for galleries and museums. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Clock-Shaped Wooden Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wooden-installation.md) - [Concentric Timezone Wall Clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/analog-wall-clock.md) - [Linearly Formed Wall Clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/linear-clock-concept.md) - [Abstract Artwork-Inspired Timepieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ode-to-delaunay-watch.md) - [Snow Landscape Sundial Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/light-time.md) - [Kinetic Pattern Clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moir-clock.md) - [Welded Stainless Timepieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/edition-003-clock.md) - [Haute Fashion Digital Watches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/timex-x-mm6-maison-margiela-collection.md) - [Minimal Dynamic Desk Clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wooden-desk-clock.md)
