By layering [flat digital photographs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pointillism), ThisMortalMagic is able to evoke a truly erotic--or monstrous, depending on your perspective--feel to something that appears to be absolutely devoid of form. By using black acrylic paints, 'Monstres d'Acrylique' conveys a dark and pseudo-grotesque Gothic feel that is awesome. **Implications** - When one photograph or image seems like not quite enough, the use of [multiple exposure techniques](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rhinoceros-gallery1) can be a great alternative. Through utilizing multiple images in a collage-like fashion, businesses create eye-catching imagery and help themselves stand out from the crowd in marketing, product packaging and advertising. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.3/10 - Popularity: 92% | Activity: 88% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Modern](https://www.trendhunter.com/modern) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Multiple Exposure Techniques:** Businesses can use techniques like multiple exposure to create eye-catching imagery and stand out in marketing and advertising. - **Innovative Artistic Showcases:** Artists and businesses can explore new and unique ways to utilize paints and photography to create innovative showcases. - **Dark and Gothic Imagery:** Businesses can leverage the appeal of dark and Gothic imagery in their marketing and branding efforts. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Art:** Artists can explore the use of multiple exposure techniques and unique paint and photography combinations to create innovative works. - **Marketing and Advertising:** Businesses can utilize multiple exposure techniques and dark and Gothic imagery to create eye-catching and memorable marketing campaigns. - **Product Packaging:** Businesses can use unique and innovative artistic showcases to create standout product packaging. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Digital Archetype Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/christian-rex-van-minnen-1.md) - [Raunchy Anime-Inspired Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/manuela-soto-sosa.md) - [Painting-Immersive Photo Exhibits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-ground-exhibition.md) - [Collaborative Monochromatic Art Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/collaborative-monochromatic-art-exhibition.md) - [Human Embraced-Inspired Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wallmounted-sculpture.md) - [Juxtaposing Digital Art Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/riflessi.md) - [Creative Space-Enhancing Companies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bespoke-artworks.md) - [Sea-Inspired Mini Sculpture Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mini-sculptures.md) - [Unique Artistic Books](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/amusebouche.md)
