The artist Megumi Igarashi aka Rokudenashiko was arrested in japan for creating a kayak shaped like a vagina.  She is using her cool idea to take exception to Japan's traditional views regarding obscenity. 

Art can only be defined as something that evokes emotion.  She has generated an emotional, large, and far-reaching conversation.  So, I think she is doing a good job.

I only have one question.  Aren't all kayaks shaped like vaginas?  And drift boats too...
