'Sex, Drugs and Office Supplies' by Victor Koroma is a series of five images which aim to transform the viewer's perception of traditional images. The images feature normal, everyday office supplies on colorful backgrounds, in an effort to drive the viewer to think of alternate (predominantly sexual) uses for the supplies.
Victor Koroma is capitalizing off of the general perception that everyone thinks about sex at least a couple of times a day, so these office supplies should trigger some inherently naughty thoughts. Gotta love artists.
