His designs cover a range of commercial and artistic genres. In his ‘[Team Travis](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/grownup-repair-kit)’ photos, he appears as something of a super hero, a la Napoleon Dynamite. If ‘Team Travis’ looks interesting to you, check out Thomas Girard’s other work (and his portfolio) at the links below. There’s something even more noble about a super hero who wouldn’t stand out too much on the street. Unless, of course, he was making that face. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.1/10 - Popularity: 25% | Activity: 31% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## 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 - **Superhero Photography:** Opportunities for disruptive innovation in photography by exploring new creative ways to capture superhero-inspired images. - **Geek Culture Art:** Opportunities for disruptive innovation in the art industry by creating and exploring geektography-inspired art. - **Nerdy Cosplay Fashion:** Opportunities for disruptive innovation in the fashion industry by creating cosplay-inspired clothing for the geek culture population. ### Who This Affects Most - **Photography:** Exploring opportunities for disruptive photography inspired by the superhero genre to create a new wave of photography that appeals to geeks. - **Art:** Exploring opportunities for disruptive art inspired by the superhero genre to create a new wave of art that appeals to geeks. - **Fashion:** Exploring opportunities for disruptive fashion inspired by the superhero genre to create a new wave of clothing that appeals to geeks in the nerdy cosplay scene. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Warped Dynamic New-Gen Eyewear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vern-morph-and-form.md) - [Outdoor-Inspired Colorful Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/travis-weller.md) - [Artful Suspended Fashion Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/invisible-figures.md) - [Travel Photography Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/all-within-the-detour.md) - [Human Duality-Themed Abstract Art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/passive-aggression.md) - [Graffiti-Inspired Projector Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yaber-technologies.md) - [Skateboarding Heritage Collection](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/united-through-skateboarding.md) - [Travel-Inspired Canvas Paintings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-passport-series.md) - [Photographer-Collab Card Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/artiste-series.md)
