# Provocative Crucifix-Clad Clocks Nono Muaks Combines Wilderness with Religion in this Home Object By Erin Kirkpatrick | Published 2012-05-02 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-nono-muaks-recrosssurrection-clock References: [nonomuaks](http://www.nonomuaks.com/projects) & [nonomuaks](http://www.nonomuaks.com/projects.html) The Nono Muaks Recrosssurrection Clock integrates the great outdoors with the religious symbol of a crucifix. This creative clock shows the silhouette of a Jesus-like figure suspended on a cross. This is no ordinary crucifix but rather one that sprouts antlers and that doubles as a perch for a parrot, just where the clock is located. This racy and considerably blasphemous clock is bound to cause a stir. No doubt, this piece is meant to provoke more questions than it has answers for. Nono Muaks is well-known for unleashing strange and whimsical products. An interesting and unorthodox visual approach to the crucifix and resurrection will no doubt ruffle some religious feathers. Constructed out of [stainless steel mirror](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/edition-003-clock), 'Recrosssurrection' -- apart from being a conversation piece -- acts as both a mirror, a clock and a modern expression of one's religion. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.7/10 - Popularity: 32% | Activity: 11% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Home](https://www.trendhunter.com/home) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Provocative Crucifix-clad Clocks:** The trend of incorporating provocative and unconventional designs into religious symbols, such as crucifixes, in products like clocks. - **Wilderness-inspired Religious Decor:** The trend of merging elements of nature, such as antlers, with traditional religious symbols in home decor items like clocks. - **Unorthodox Religious Visuals:** The trend of using unorthodox and unconventional visual representations of religious symbols, like a Jesus figure with antlers, in creative products like clocks. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Home Decor:** The home decor industry can explore the opportunity to create unique and provocative religious-inspired products, such as clocks, that challenge traditional designs. - **Religious Products:** Manufacturers of religious products can seize the opportunity to create innovative and unconventional items that cater to a market seeking alternative and unique expressions of their faith. - **Art and Design:** The art and design industry can tap into the disruptive innovation opportunity of combining unconventional elements, like antlers, with religious symbolism to create thought-provoking and controversial pieces like clocks. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Tranquil Asymmetrical Wall Clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wooj-design-masuno-clock.md) - [Two-Sided Wall Clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/corner-clock.md) - [Chic Modern Cuckoo Clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modern-cuckoo-clock1.md) - [Perforated Metal Clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moov-and-coo.md) - [Intentionally Foggy Clock Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kehai-clock.md) - [Concentric Timezone Wall Clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/analog-wall-clock.md) - [Literature-Displaying Clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/author-clock.md) - [Celestially Inspired Desk Clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/astral-desk-clock.md) - [Welded Stainless Timepieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/edition-003-clock.md)
