Photographers Clarisse Rebotier and Thomas Subtil wanted to showcase what animals would look like outside of their typical, wild environments, so they depicted them on the Paris Metro. This [surreal series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jeffrey-deitch-art-gallery) portrays huge animals trying to take various types of [pubic transportation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/be-right-back), and it's quite comical. You can see a giraffe poking its long neck and head out of a train window, an elephant taking up majority of a subway cabin and an ostrich waiting for its stop on the bus. The full series is currently [on exhibit at the Millesime Gallery](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rhinoceros-gallery) in Paris until the end of this month. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.6/10 - Popularity: 61% | Activity: 10% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Safari Animal Photography:** Opportunity for photographers to capture animals in unexpected urban settings, creating surreal and comical images. - **Wildlife in Public Spaces:** Exploration of how animals interact with urban environments and public transportation, offering a unique perspective on urban wildlife. - **Unconventional Art Exhibits:** Showcasing unusual and whimsical artwork in non-traditional spaces, attracting curiosity and engaging viewers in unexpected ways. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Photography:** Photographers can experiment with new concepts and techniques, capturing wildlife in urban environments for commercial and artistic purposes. - **Urban Planning:** Urban planners can consider the impact of urban wildlife and design public spaces that accommodate and coexist with animals. - **Art Galleries:** Art gallery owners can curate unconventional exhibits that challenge traditional concepts of art, attracting a diverse audience and stimulating dialogue. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Wild Animal-Decorated Gowns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/schiaparelli-lion-head.md) - [Outdoor Wildlife Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-great-elephant-migration.md) - [AI-Generated Poetic Photo Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/emilio-alarcn.md) - [Striking Urban Wildlife Art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/clare-allin.md) - [Knitted New York Subways](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/straphangers-lounge.md) - [Immersive Digital Forests](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/teamlab-1.md) - [Public Art Displays](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/paul-anthony-smith.md) - [Almost-Extinct Animal Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fauna-series.md) - [AR Selfie Booths](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/selfie-booth1.md)
