# Gory Lovetography Pawel Denkowicz's 'My Bloody Valentine' Isn't for the Faint of Heart By Michael Hines | Published 2010-05-02 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pawel-denkowicz References: [fashionserved](http://www.fashionserved.com/Gallery/My-Bloody-Valentine/452343) & [behance.net](http://www.behance.net/denkowicz/Frame) I wish somebody would have warned me before I checked out Pawel Denkowicz's 'My Bloody Valentine.' Pawel Denkowicz's 'My Bloody Valentine' literally features one lover giving his heart to another. I'm all for literal interpretations, but this is a little too much for me to handle. Still, who doesn't love a good gory photoshoot every once in awhile? Check out the gallery to see all of the pictures from this Pawel Denkowicz shoot. I'm definitely going to think twice now before I tell a woman that she has my heart. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.9/10 - Popularity: 66% | Activity: 42% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Romance](https://www.trendhunter.com/romance) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Extreme Love Photography:** Creating avant-garde love photography showcasing unconventional expression and subject matter for those seeking a unique, alternative vision of love. - **Shock Art:** Pushing the boundaries of mainstream art with shocking visuals, themes, and concepts that challenge the status quo and encourage thought-provoking discourse. - **Conceptual Art Photography:** Focusing on imaginative, thought-provoking visual storytelling using the medium of photography, pushing the boundaries of traditional photography into a new realm of art and expression. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Photography:** Exploring new avenues of artistic expression and tapping into a new market of consumers looking for something different and unconventional. - **Art:** Embracing the avant-garde and promoting the creation of thought-provoking artwork that challenges cultural norms and encourages discussion and debate. - **Fashion:** Incorporating shock and unconventional concepts and themes into fashion photography to create unique visual narratives and challenge traditional views on beauty and aesthetics. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Valentine's Beef Jerky Hearts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/meathearts.md) - [Educational Valentine's Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/language-of-love.md) - [Unconventional Valentine Cards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/happy-disingenuous-romance-day-valentine-card.md) - [Naughty Valentines Day Treats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sugar-wood.md) - [Valentine's Day Intimates](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/love-lemons.md) - [Spicy Valentine’s Day Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/some-love-it-hot-valentines-day-set.md) - [Playful Accessory Drops](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/valentine-collection.md) - [Darkly Romantic Offerings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beasts-desolate-rose-bundle.md) - [Romantic Kitschy Lingerie](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/for-love-and-lemons-1.md)
