# Vulnerable Humanography The Ruben Brulat Primates Collection Places Nude Humans in Nature By Meghan Young | Published 2009-12-11 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ruben-brulat-primates References: [behance.net](http://www.behance.net/Gallery/Primates/360179) & [rubenbrulat](http://www.rubenbrulat.com/#167058/Primates) I would argue that all images carry a message, but when that message is as well thought-out and executed as the Ruben Brulat Primates portfolio is, it becomes a vehicle for reflection and maybe even change. Taking the [fragile human form](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gabriel-chaile) and placing it in formidable situations, he shows just how vulnerable we are in the world. The Ruben Brulat Primates portfolio places mankind on the same platform as other species, no more or less special. By doing so, he also focuses on the [raw beauty of the individual](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/profiles-in-color) within [vast natural environments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/john-dessarzin-jungle-sanctuary). ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.2/10 - Popularity: 25% | Activity: 3% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Photography](https://www.trendhunter.com/stylephotography) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Human Vulnerability:** Opportunity to create products/services that address and alleviate human vulnerability in various contexts. - **Environmental Consciousness:** Opportunity to generate awareness and consideration for the world's natural beauty and the impact humans have on it. - **Species Equality:** Opportunity to challenge traditional cultural views by promoting respect and equality for all species. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Art:** Opportunity to create powerful art pieces that communicate a message of vulnerability, harmony and connection between humans and the environment. - **Fashion:** Opportunity to create clothing that incorporates natural elements, textures and colors, connecting wearers to their surroundings in a new way. - **Tourism:** Opportunity to create sustainable tourism experiences that focus on wildlife conservation, providing opportunities for people to learn about species diversity and natural habitats. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Wooden Identity Art Forms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hughmanity.md) - [Nature-Inspired Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/humannature-1.md) - [Unretouched Photography Books](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dove-reimagine-beauty.md) - [Striking Urban Wildlife Art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/clare-allin.md) - [Perception-Challenging Art Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/becoming-familiar.md) - [Three-Part Photography Exhibits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rhinoceros-gallery1.md) - [Paper Curvature Lights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/paper-curves.md) - [AI-Generated Poetic Photo Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/emilio-alarcn.md) - [Public Art Displays](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/paul-anthony-smith.md)
