: so top that! :
graffiti pieces are some of my favorite things. I like this one even though I'm not quite sure what's going on. It could be a woman in labor . . . or squatting to pee into that mail slot? If so, I've really intruded here. I feel like "the voyeur," and I'd insert a Freudian reading of the art here but I don't believe his theories (and I really should be writing about other things right now). So I'll just say, "abject public art -- how ironic, paradoxical, and clever!"

Interesting observations. Thanks for pointing out the various things. I did not see them at first.
Your art challenged mother.
