Paper Voyeur













This website was suggested to me. It’s a really nice idea and I really like the images although it’s not really my style. The images are designed with the intent to arouse and are therefore distinguishable. Really nice website as well.




















































I like the idea of making up an image from the negative spaces.
Reminds me of those optical illusions where there can be two images in one, depending on how you look at them. This one is interesting because apparently children can't see the kissing couple because they don’t have prior memory associated with such a scenario, instead they only see the dolphins.

Seeing this wallpaper also reminded me of some toilets in Putney. It was in a pub toilet. I looked around and said how nice and different the wallpaper was. I took a closer look and realized that they were illustrations of sexual positions. I hadn’t realized what they were to begin with because I think at first I just took in the overall look of the image – traditional Victorian style illustrations – without actually looking at the content (and obviously not expecting to see porn all over the walls!). I think ill go back and take some photos of it but I think that might involve going back to Putney.
– photos to follow.
