Life is always trying to catch us off guard with the unexpected and strange. She pokes and prods at our lives, constantly reminding us to see things from a new or different perspective. Sometimes, she takes that job too literally, embedding subtle and sometimes not-so-subtle images into everyday objects that we frequently come across like t-shirts and food items, giving them a whole new life.

It's one thing to look at a cup of coffee and see Van Gogh's Starry Night. It is an entirely different experience to look at a bowl of ice cream and see a face staring back at you, making you question what is living and what is inanimate. And the worst part about seeing faces in everyday items is that you can never un-see them. Keeping that in mind, these photos are sure to make you shudder and then smile... And then maybe shudder again!
