He combines elegant backdrops of mountains, forests and various nature elements, atop the outline of beasts such as wolves and polar bears. Using two completely separate photographs, a [double exposure portrait](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/portrait-mom) is created. The beauty of the portraits is heightened by the natural coloring that offers a look into the true camouflage of the animals and their habitats. The textures of the trees, water and aggressive mountainous landscapes play a unique role in resembling the fur of such creatures; this produces a more cohesive image. From large buffalo and polar bears to small forest creatures, such as squirrels and foxes, the series was undoubtedly influenced by the artist's coastal and mountainous surroundings in Bergen, Noway. The prints are available in [prints, tote bags, clocks, pillows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/silent-echoes) and more. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.2/10 - Popularity: 65% | Activity: 53% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Double Exposure Art:** There's the opportunity for professional photographers to offer unique and captivating portraits by merging two separate photographs through the trend of double exposure art. - **Environmental Consciousness:** Through the trend of environmental consciousness, companies can prioritize nature-inspired products that highlight the true colors and textures of the outdoors. - **Wildlife-inspired Decor:** There's an opportunity for home decor and furniture companies to incorporate wildlife-inspired designs into their products by using picturesque natural landscapes and animals as their source of inspiration. ### Who This Affects Most - **Photography:** Photographers can take advantage of this trend and use their skills to create one-of-a-kind portraits for their clients by incorporating double exposure art into their portfolio. - **Art and Printing:** Art and Printing companies can offer nature-inspired products such as prints, tote bags, and clocks that showcase the beauty of the great outdoors as seen in this trend. - **Home Decor and Furniture:** Home decor and furniture companies can incorporate wildlife-inspired designs into their products, using natural landscapes and animals as their source of inspiration and thus capitalize on this trend. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Almost-Extinct Animal Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fauna-series.md) - [Striking Urban Wildlife Art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/clare-allin.md) - [Painting-Immersive Photo Exhibits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-ground-exhibition.md) - [Stunning Origami Portraits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/origami-portaits.md) - [AI-Generated Poetic Photo Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/emilio-alarcn.md) - [Travel Photography Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/all-within-the-detour.md) - [Pet-Taken Camera Initiatives](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/heartography.md) - [Chalk Streams Exhibits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/british-conceptual-landscape-photographer.md) - [Human Duality-Themed Abstract Art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/passive-aggression.md)
