The [Nicolas Dhervillers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nicolas-ruinart-pavilion) 'Tourist #1' photo series is an interesting concept. It centers on original photographs taken by Dhervillers with the addition of select [Google](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/interactive-digital-artwork) tourist images that have been cut and cropped so that only the tourist remains.

By placing this tourist with his photograph, the Nicolas Dhervillers 'Tourist #1' series depicts new 'non-places,' as the artist puts it. By creating these new settings, he creates a whole new set of imagery that has not been done before.
