The result is a vivid set of red, brown, black and blue portraits. The artist immortalizes seemingly ordinary objects and makes them more striking and monumental in their aesthetic. While a rubberized purse begins to resemble an inverted photo image, a latex rubber duck goes from innocent to sinister and suggestive. Marc Tule's captivating image series utilizes latex materials in an interesting and inventive way. The series is sculptural and vibrant, showcasing the intricate lines and details of each of its still life subjects. It also focuses on shape and highlights the smooth texture of latex. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.6/10 - Popularity: 62% | Activity: 37% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% 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) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Latex Art:** There is an opportunity to explore new artistic frontiers through the usage of latex material, presenting an opportunity for disrupt innovation in the art industry - **Rubberized Designs:** The usage of latex material in fashion and design presents opportunities for disruptive innovation in the design industry and fashion industry - **Latex Photography:** The use of latex material in photography presents an opportunity for innovative disruption in the art and photography industry ### Who This Affects Most - **Art:** The art industry has an opportunity to innovate through the usage of latex material in various artworks - **Design:** The design industry has an opportunity to explore the usage of latex material in creating fresh and innovative designs - **Fashion:** The fashion industry can explore the usage of latex materials in creating bold and unique designs for apparel and accessories ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Miniaturized Product Art Photographs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/small-muji.md) - [Surrealist Beauty Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/toiletpaper-magazine.md) - [Sea-Inspired Mini Sculpture Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mini-sculptures.md) - [Digital Archetype Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/christian-rex-van-minnen-1.md) - [Raw Material Objects](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/raw-material-object.md) - [Playful Sculptural Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/afterglow-1.md) - [Wrinkled Plastic Film-Wrapped Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/paul-coenen-1.md) - [Utilitarian Matte Sculptural Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brutantes-series.md) - [Curvaceous Linoleum Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/linoleum-furniture-collection.md)
