More spectacular, however, is the fact that he is able to achieve such fine artistry on [circuit panels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/22-system). That’s right; Eguiarte uses the breakers found within households as his canvases to give his images a cratered or Morse code-like look. If you thought his images were electrifying before, now you have a perfect reason as to why. Leo Eguiarte himself is based in Los Angeles. Though he experiments with different media, his work still often uses [saturated colors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/surreal-street-art-1) to depict bizarre scenes, patterns and characters. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.3/10 - Popularity: 24% | Activity: 8% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Psychedelic Art:** Using circuit panels as canvases opens up new opportunities for creating vibrant and visually stunning psychedelic art. - **Repurposing Household Items:** The use of household distribution boards as art displays highlights the trend of repurposing everyday objects in creative and unexpected ways. - **Technological Imagery:** The fusion of circuit panels and fine art allows for the exploration of the relationship between technology and artistic expression, presenting disruptive innovation opportunities in the art world. ### Who This Affects Most - **Art and Design:** Artists can explore the potential of incorporating circuit panels into their artwork, revolutionizing the traditional canvas. - **Technology:** The integration of circuit panels and artistic expression presents opportunities for technological advancements in the field of visual arts. - **Home Improvement:** The use of circuit panels as art installations can inspire homeowners to view electrical components as aesthetic elements, leading to creative home improvement trends. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Laser-Cut Urban Artistry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/laser-cut-city-maps.md) - [Psychedelic Hand-Painted Cabinets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/collection-iii.md) - [Printed Circuit Sconces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/printed-circuit.md) - [Life-Like 3D Canvases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lumino.md) - [Digital City-Inspired Art Works](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/grand-central-station.md) - [Glass Beaded Intricate Artworks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/painting-exhibition.md) - [Wonderous Art Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/your-psychoacoustic-light-ensemble.md) - [Psychedelic Skateboard Decks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-psychedelia.md) - [Evolved Vibrant Graffiti Art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jan-kalb.md)
