The "Naturally Occurring" exposition illustrates various cultural inspirations in visual elements of our public environment. "Naturally Occurring" manifests irony in that none of these signs occur naturally, but in our current environmental conditions, that of exposure to media every day, it is not surprising to see such images as the ones presented below. Hopefully you will find these as amusing, too :)
