# Demonic Freaktography The Marco Cavalieri Clown Exhibit Will Make You Fear the Circus By Alex Scott | Published 2010-03-24 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/marco-cavalieri-clown-exhibit References: [behance.net](http://www.behance.net/Gallery/CLOWN/461458) & [flickr](http://www.flickr.com/photos/sonoacqua/) I very much enjoy hunting down [creepy and macabre photography](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/junji-ito-artwork) and giving my two cents on it, but I’m afraid that in this case if I do, a clown will come right out of the screen and eat me. The Marco Cavalieri Clown Exhibit is downright terrifying. It's the kind of stuff that keeps you up at night. The images seen here were produced using a skilful combination of [makeup and photoshopping](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/all-within-the-detour). If you took away all that these photos would likely be very pleasant but throw Mr. Cavalieri’s demented mind and scary talent into the mix and you’ve got images that will make your nightmares seem tame. I suggest viewing the Marco Cavalieri Clown Exhibit in a brightly lit populated area. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.7/10 - Popularity: 30% | Activity: 42% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Cosmetics](https://www.trendhunter.com/cosmetics) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Creepy Photography:** Explore the realm of creepy and macabre photography for a unique visual experience. - **Terrifying Imagery:** Discover the power of disturbing and haunting images that stay with you long after you've seen them. - **Makeup and Photoshop:** Witness the incredible transformation of photos through the skillful use of makeup and digital editing. ### Who This Affects Most - **Art and Photography:** Opportunity for artists and photographers to push boundaries and create unsettling and impactful visuals. - **Film and Entertainment:** Potential for horror filmmakers and haunted house attractions to utilize creepy photography techniques for a truly terrifying experience. - **Advertising and Marketing:** Chance to use creepy imagery to capture attention and evoke strong emotions, enhancing advertising and marketing campaigns. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Distorted Burger Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ailloween.md) - [Spooky Slasher Movie Experiences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/universal-studios-halloween-horror-nights.md) - [Horror Clown Clogs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/classic-clog-pennywise.md) - [Painting-Immersive Photo Exhibits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-ground-exhibition.md) - [Grotesque Halloween Pizzas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/halloween-pizza-campaign.md) - [Hyper-Realistic Flesh Objects](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/junji-ito.md) - [Horror Film-Inspired Footwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/horrific-crocs.md) - [Otherwordly Art Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/william-monk.md) - [Smiling Snakes Art Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smiling-snakes-art-exhibition.md)
