Whether it's a coffee maker adorned with eye stickers or a tube of mayo suddenly staring back at you, these seemingly lifeless objects are brought to vibrant life. A single adhesive embellishment transforms our surroundings into a friendlier, more animated place.

The practice, known affectionately as "eyebombing," involves the whimsical act of placing googly eyes on various objects, infusing them with a semblance of personality and vitality. This strange trend traces its roots back to the early 2000s, drawing inspiration from the French artist Do Benracassa’s 1980s project "Ça Vous Regarde," which laid the conceptual groundwork for this playful art form.

While some purists argue that applying these animated eyes to photographs of people falls outside the true spirit of eyebombing—given that these subjects possess a life of their own—this addition often injects a surprising depth of character and relatability into the images. The eyebombing phenomenon has cultivated dedicated followers all over social media, all united by their appreciation for the transformative power of googly eyes.

So, why not see for yourself what all the fuss is about? If the concept of turning mundane objects into engaging characters appeals to you, we invite you to join in on the fun.

Dive into the world of eyebombing and share your own googly-eyed creations with us. Your submission could be the next to capture the hearts of eyebombing enthusiasts worldwide.
