Inspired by how the imagination wanders when boredom strikes, photographer Lauren Hillebrandt takes ordinary food items and turns them into sensual fruits through [erotic imagery](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/inside-shop).

Titled 'Just Fruits,' it is evident that the artist wants to play tricks on the mind, encouraging viewers to see something naughty in a pile of produce. Even those who don't have a dirty mind will be able to decipher the sexual nature of the photographs, and ironically, it is actually more challenging to see the [fruits and vegetables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fresh-european-produce) for what they are.

Temptingly delicious and erotic, the way Hillebrandt portrays sensual fruits is a playful way for the artist to toy with the way people's minds tend to travel towards sex.
