You know, there are some days when you just feel like exploring the surrealims of the everyday. Cue Adam Broomberg and Oliver Chanarin, two photographers that know just how far to take an image into that treacherous realm of social-yet-playful context.

A dash of self-reflexology we can all use on the studio walls of our brains.
