I enjoy the giant shoes as much as I love shoes in general. The artist, Petros Chrisostomo, also creates [GIANT cheese, cakes, corsets and eggs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/heir-and-a-spare). Brilliant. She is based in London and graduated 2008 with a MA Fine Art from [Royal Academy Schools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/interactive-kinetic-sculptures). In her artists statement Petros states that, "This 'still life' photography, highlights the qualities in the objects that I would like to pronounce, and in most cases, by juxtaposing them with particular scenarios, subverts our expectations towards them." ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.5/10 - Popularity: 68% | Activity: 29% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Pop Culture](https://www.trendhunter.com/popculture) > [Internet](https://www.trendhunter.com/internet) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Giant Installations:** Opportunity to create large scale sculptures and installations for public spaces. - **Photographic Still Life:** Potential to explore new ways of showcasing still life photography with unexpected scenarios. - **Subversion of Expectations:** Opportunity to create art that challenges and subverts expectations through unconventional pairings and scenarios. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Art and Sculpture:** Artists and sculptors could incorporate the trend of giant installations and still life photography to create innovative and thought-provoking pieces. - **Advertising and Marketing:** Marketers could explore the concept of subverting expectations in their advertising campaigns to create attention-grabbing and memorable ads. - **Event Design:** Event designers can create unique and engaging experiences by incorporating the trend of giant installations and unexpected scenarios in their designs. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Oversized Pupper Fashion Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/giant-puppets.md) - [Decorative Gigantic Chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yinka-ilori2.md) - [Maximalist Pop Art Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/keiichi-tanaami.md) - [Kidult Baby Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/super-baby.md) - [Iconic Bag-Inspired Art Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/big-birk.md) - [Platform Statement Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/8inch-flipflops.md) - [Sneaker-Shaped Swimming Pools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sneakerpool.md) - [Dynamic Ultra-High Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/platform-sneaker-1.md) - [Collaborative Artful Shoe Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/metropole-seoul-derby.md)
