Recently, dozens of photos were posted on Instagram with eyeball-shaped stickers in men's bathroom stalls.

The pictures were marked with a hashtag, ‘It's just a sticker.This is a follow-up to the installation art project carried out in 2017 by “Adultboy,” an installation artist and man in his 20s.

Installation art


Installation art is an artistic genre of three-dimensional works that often are site-specific and designed to transform the perception of a space. Generally, the term is applied to interior spaces, whereas exterior interventions are often called public art, land art or intervention art; however, the boundaries between these terms overlap.


装置艺术(Installation art)许多人追溯根源到法国艺术家杜尚,他使用现成的物件而非传统上要求手工技巧的雕塑来创作。(维基百科)



Citizens buy eyeball-shaped stickers on their own, attach them to toilets, take “shots” of their own and repost them to “Adultboy.”


The project aims to encourage men to sympathize with the fear of illegal filming that women feel when they use public restrooms.

“This is just a sticker,” he said to men who were surprised to see a sticker that looked like an illegal camera lens.


At the same time, the project is also aimed at delivering the impression that women have had to listen to not be deemed as “sensitive” by men.


Many citizens are said to have voluntarily joined the project in sympathy with the cause, taking pictures of toilet stalls with eyeball stickers and posting them on social media.
