# Human Time Mapping Art The Pia Männikkö's 'Déjà Vu' Series Turns into a Ghostl By Katie Pagnotta | Published 2012-11-26 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/time-mapping References: [mymodernmet](http://www.mymodernmet.com/profiles/blogs/pia-mannikko-deja-vu) & [piamannikko.wordpress](http://piamannikko.wordpress.com/) Artist Pia Männikkö's latest artwork focuses on human time mapping. The piece titled 'Déjà Vu'is a series of recreations of human movement using human forms and pathways. The [interactive and eerie work](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/your-psychoacoustic-light-ensemble) is meant to engage viewers and capture a sense of time and its correlation to movement. The [human silhouettes were made of tulle](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/olga-de-amaral) and ink and set-up sequentially to display the variations of action. Displaying the sections in a layered format makes the images appear ghostly or like distant shadows. Pia forces a blank space to come alive with her swaying creations and for her audience to recognize their own changes in movement as they walk through the piece. 'Déjà Vu' is a stunning installation recording human time mapping and provoking an inwardly analysis of motion. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.7/10 - Popularity: 28% | Activity: 16% | 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) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Human Time Mapping:** Opportunity for wearable technology companies to create devices that track and analyze human movement over time. - **Interactive Art:** Opportunity for art galleries and museums to incorporate interactive elements into their exhibits, enhancing viewer engagement and enjoyment. - **Eerie Visuals:** Opportunity for visual effects studios to create eerie and ghostly visuals for movies, TV shows, and video games. ### Where This Applies - **Wearable Technology:** Opportunity for wearable technology companies to integrate human movement tracking into their devices, offering new insights and applications. - **Art Galleries and Museums:** Opportunity for art galleries and museums to showcase interactive art installations that captivate and engage viewers in unique ways. - **Visual Effects:** Opportunity for visual effects studios to push the boundaries of visual storytelling by creating eerie and ghostly effects for various media platforms. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Intricate Site-Specific Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/folded-time.md) - [Fluid Function Art Exhibits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/optical-flow.md) - [Artful Suspended Fashion Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/invisible-figures.md) - [Immersive Climate Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/remembering-the-future.md) - [Kumiko Craft Structures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/timevase.md) - [Dynamic Art Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/art-in-motion-exhibition.md) - [AI-Generated Poetic Photo Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/emilio-alarcn.md) - [Maze-Inspired Performance Spaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/city-of-time.md) - [Human Embraced-Inspired Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wallmounted-sculpture.md)
