SFist Finds: VJJ
We found ourselves asking ourselves lots of questions when we decided to post this piece of urban art that SFist reader Mike found on the corner of Sutter and Larkin last week. We were like, is this not suitable for work? It's just graffiti, and it looks just like all the beautiful vagina clichés that are cliché for a reason. It's like a lovely clam, or a caterpillar transforming into a butterfly, or a head of cabbage resting in a loaf of French bread (see full image after the jump). This tagger is the Georgia O'Keeffe of the streets, we tell you. (But, if they hadn't written "VAGINA," would we be at all sure, it was in fact, a vagina?)
Then we found ourselves thinking, what if this were just another penis drawing -- we probably wouldn't even bother posting it. Penis drawings are a dime a dozen, but vagina drawings such as this are real pearls diamonds in the rough.
Submit your Bay Area finds to found [at] sfist [dot] com, or tag them sfist and found on Flickr. Let us know where and when you found the item and any other helpful info.

The ellipse makes the tagger so wistful...
Does the ellipses mean there's more to come?
It's better in close up. More flower like.
Reminds me of the boys bathroom in junior high.
something tells me that tagger will never see another unless he pays for it of course
big up to king clovis for the o'keefe ref.
