Hymen

Artificial hymen, that is.

Developed by the art studio/laboratory VivoLabs, HymNextTM is an actual organic tissue grown in a laboratory. The prototypes were grown from rat smooth muscle tissues and blotting membranes. The artists/producers point out that the HymNextTM are "not meant for human application" only as "soft sculptures". The developed hymens, in various shapes and colors, are presented in a cerimonial box. "Alternative packaging is being developed".
