After all, the young artist often renders images evocative of sacred geometry found in ancient tomes. Using [myriad shapes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/illusion-box), Davidson constructs [kaleidoscopic visuals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-psychedelia) that thrill eyes through aggressive details and technical precision. It’s no wonder why his designs are often used as inspiration for tattoos; they’re just that good. What may surprise readers about Kris Davidson’s drawings is that he illustrates using nothing but a [pencil and paper](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/experimental-pencils). It’s not uncommon for artists to employ the aid of computers in order to get similar perfect results, but Davidson forgoes such aid and still manages these visual marvels. Davidson explains that he creates art to convey a sense of interconnectedness between all things, as well as to demonstrate, “the reciprocal relationship of healing and art.” ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.4/10 - Popularity: 59% | Activity: 36% | 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) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Sacred Geometry:** Exploring the use of sacred geometric patterns in contemporary art and design, paving the way for innovative applications across various industries. - **Hand-drawn Illustrations:** Reviving the traditional art of pencil and paper illustrations in a digital age, presenting opportunities for disruptive innovation in the art and design industry. - **Interconnectedness:** Highlighting the significance of interconnectedness and its potential to drive innovation in areas such as holistic healing, science, and technology. ### Where This Applies - **Art and Design:** Exploring how the use of sacred geometric patterns in contemporary art and design can create disruptive innovations in various fields. - **Tattoo Industry:** Leveraging the intricate and visually appealing sacred geometric designs for tattoos, offering new opportunities for creativity and business growth in the tattoo industry. - **Holistic Healing:** Exploring the potential of interconnectedness in the field of holistic healing, leading to innovative approaches and solutions for practitioners and patients alike. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Artfully Dynamic Vessels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/devin-wilde.md) - [Abstract Geometric Solo Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/impermanent-state-of-being.md) - [Vibrantly Colorful Dynamic Artwork](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kayla-rumpp.md) - [Limited 3D-Printed Ceramic Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dyadic-series.md) - [Culturally Artful Textile Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/devotion-exhibtion.md) - [Digital Archetype Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/christian-rex-van-minnen-1.md) - [Dynamic Mathematically Shaped Surfaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mathematically-shaped.md) - [Virtual Craft Fusions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arnardo-collection.md) - [Evolved Vibrant Graffiti Art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jan-kalb.md)
