THONG THERAPY




Dynamic Duo Lena Ollmark and Marion Lindsay did it again! Their soon-to-be global Thong Therapy exhibition landed in Sacre Coeur on Swedish homeland!

Thong Therapy is an art project where colorful thongs get new meaning with imprints like "Mind The Gap", "slippery When Wet", "Finns det några snälla barn här?", implicit logos like "Brittish Meat" and "Marmite" as well as poems, images of celebrities, famous quotes and other signs, images and logos. They are beautifully framed on backdrops of old wallpaper or classy fabrics. Get your while they Last! Prices range from 50-100€ for the framed copies.

Short bio:

Getting historical
Thong Therapy has recently been displayed in the UK, but is now back and improved! It will be on display until mid January, so go see! First Swedish exhibition was hung on brilliant Café Skåningen, which has now been sold, and partly the staff moved on to what used to be Mellis@ Nytorget, now called Sacre Coeur, Skånegatan 83.
