# Crocheted Cigars Feminine Technique Art by Nathan Vincent By Annie Ho | Published 2010-05-27 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nathan-vincent1 References: [thisblogrules](http://www.thisblogrules.com/2010/05/masculine-sculptures-made-by-using-feminine-techniques.html) & [nathanvincent](http://nathanvincent.com/home.html) Not many people think of a man sewing or crocheting, but that doesn't matter to Nathan Vincent. Nathan Vincent uses techniques that are considered 'feminine' in society, such as [sewing, knitting and crocheting](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/olga-de-amaral) to create his art. Even though he uses "feminine" techniques, the sculptures that he makes are indeed very manly. Check out the crochet beers, guns and the cigars in the featured gallery. If those aren't manly, I don't know what is. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.8/10 - Popularity: 39% | Activity: 8% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Life](https://www.trendhunter.com/life) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Gendered Crafting:** Expanding the perception of traditionally feminine craft techniques by integrating them into masculine art forms. - **Masculine Crochet:** Using crochet as a medium to create traditionally masculine sculptures, challenging gender norms in art. - **Crafted Disruption:** Incorporating unexpected materials and techniques in art to create unique and disruptive pieces. ### Who This Affects Most - **Art and Sculpture:** Exploring new avenues of artistic expression by blending traditional craft techniques with sculptural forms. - **Craft and Hobby:** Challenging conventions in crafting by embracing unconventional materials and techniques. - **Gender Expression:** Fostering conversations around gender norms and stereotypes through creative approaches in art and crafting. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Intricate Fiber Art Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/threadwork-women-redefining-fiber-arts.md) - [Hand-Knit Sci-Fi Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/handknit-scifi-sculpture.md) - [Neurodiversity-Exploring Textiles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/interwoven-project.md) - [Sculptural Knitted Objects](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sculptural-knitted-objects.md) - [Sophisticated Upcycled Home Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/basket-sculptures.md) - [Delicate Basket Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/basket-sculpture.md) - [Playful Crochet Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crochet-collection.md) - [Art-Infused Workwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nepenthes-capsule.md) - [Modern Poertic Ceramics](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/virginia-sin.md)
