This photography set by Tasarim is called 'Fish and People,' and it depicts the hilarious similarities that occur between [fish and humans](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/house-of-gills). Just as other photographers have documented the uncanny resemblance dogs bear to their owners, so too are there unmistakable similarities between diner and dish.

I love [fun, quirky photography sets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nonnas-cam) like 'Fish and People.' The models possess the exact attitude required to pull these poses off with panache.

**Implications** - Consumers appreciate art that straddles the line between [fantasy and reality](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tea-for-two-collection). While it incorporates familiar settings and subjects, it stretches them slightly beyond the realm of possibility and enhances the viewer's imagination in a way that connects them to the vision of the artist. This connection to the work being viewed is a primary driving force toward consumption.
