Graf*ck is a really interesting art project that tackles the taboo surrounding porn. Artists from all over the world have produced works that were based on their perceptions of porn without straying directly into that realm.

The results of this artistic and psychological experiment were so outstanding that it would have seemed rude not to reproduce them as a book, so Graf*ck put on a [brilliant exhibition](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/what-are-you-looking-at).

**Implications** - These [artistic creations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/banned-books-jail) do a great job of symbolizing abstract emotions that are difficult to put into words.
