[Zebra](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/juventus-1) stripes are used in nature as camouflage, but in the case of the women seen in these Juliette Clovis creations, they’re used to make them stand out.

Clovis is a unique artist in that she uses plastic as her medium. With the odd art material, she produces surreal masterpieces, often involving [scantily clad females](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mariemurs-judge-me-guilty). Three of her latest pieces depict women shrouded in zebra prints as they pose provocatively and stare at viewers. This bizarre skin treatment further differentiates Clovis’ already one-of-a-kind work from her peers.’

Also notable about Juliette Clovis is her consistent style. She often employs [very little color in her compositions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/colorscape-installation), and when she does, they’re highly saturated to provide a visual punch. She is also partial to rendering women with abstractly large eyes.
