The Story
Homeless Aunt Thelma can usually be found in her favourite pass-out spot at the bottom of the St Kevin's arcade steps. Items most likely to be found in her Hobo Sack include a collection of lint, empty bottles, memorabilia from her long lost Italian sea-merchant lover. Thelma dislikes natural sunlight.
From being too poor to buy Christmas presents for friends and making toys instead, to having them exhibited in L.A’s Crewest Gallery and Auckland's Sideroom Gallery all in less than two years, STFYM is the goods.
* These are art toys, not toys for children to play with, of course kids love them and want them but they have not in any way been certified or approved under any health and safety or consumer regulations or legislation.
