This alluring art piece is inspired by [animal head trophies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fibredog). Novo combines her love for art and her fascination with hunting together in this magnificent and powerful art piece. The stunning showpiece is composed of plasticine and features a gorgeous intricate wooden frame surrounding the bear. The bear sculpture is titled 'Cabeza de Oso Polar.' The piece evokes a [sense of sadness and wonder](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/your-psychoacoustic-light-ensemble). The plasticine in the piece is colorful and clashes against the stark white frame. Luciana Novo's polar bear trophy is enticing and encourages the viewer to connect with the piece and make their own personal interpretation of it. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.3/10 - Popularity: 21% | Activity: 9% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Modern](https://www.trendhunter.com/modern) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Animal-inspired Art:** Opportunity for artists to create unique works that challenge traditional trophy hunting decor. - **Mixed-media Sculptures:** Emerging market for artists to combine unconventional materials with traditional art forms. - **Ecological Awareness in Art:** Trend in contemporary art to shed light on environmental issues through thought-provoking pieces. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Art and Design:** Art galleries and interior design firms can showcase and sell unique pieces of animal-inspired artwork for home and office decor. - **Material Science and Engineering:** Collaboration between artists and engineers to develop new materials and enhance the structural integrity of mixed-media sculptures. - **Environmental Conservation:** Art collaborations to raise funds for endangered species conservation and environmental preservation. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Polar Bear-Themed Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/polar-bear-bench.md) - [Striking Urban Wildlife Art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/clare-allin.md) - [Glamorous Artful Bronze Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sweet-jane.md) - [Human Embraced-Inspired Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wallmounted-sculpture.md) - [Striking Sculptural Candles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sculpture-candle.md) - [Large Animal Plush Toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/polar-bear-oversized-plush-cuddle-animal-body-pillow.md) - [Glass Beaded Intricate Artworks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/painting-exhibition.md) - [Felt-Made Novelty Shops](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bourdon-street-chippy.md) - [Digital Archetype Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/christian-rex-van-minnen-1.md)
