The Canal Vulva (Kutkunst) in Rotterdam, Netherlands

Street art is ubiquitous in Rotterdam, coming in all shapes and sizes, covering a vast array of topics in its own unique way. The canal vulva is one such piece that has fascinated passersby for over a decade.

Not much is known about this piece, apart from the fact that it is a female reproductive organ that was fastened to the wall close to some space invader mosaics. Locals call it ‘Kutkunst’ and believe that it’s a feminist statement. They are generally quite fond of it, and have helped keep it free of vandalism for over a decade.
