By strategically placing&nbsp;architectural elements onto images of the female body, Giulia is ever so slightly bypassing Instagram&rsquo;s strict censorship rules, but while the Brooklyn-based artist&rsquo;s near-pornographic collages are technically safe for&nbsp;IG, she says&nbsp;it hasn&rsquo;t been an easy road on the platform.</p></em><br /><br /><p><em>Highsnobiety</em> interviews Giulia, the provocative Brooklyn-based artist who is better known by her Instagram handle <a href="https://www.instagram.com/scientwehst/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">@scientwehst</a>.</p> <p>When asked what inspired her to create erotic collages by inserting architectural images in place of female genitalia: "It started with me creating random pornographic collages where I would replace genitalia with images that looked phallic or yonic, typically food.
