High Five

This tapestry shows two football players in red jerseys seconds before a high five. The grey-blue sky and dark green grass are their background. The tapestry is about the closeness that is barely noticeable but which is so important between us – a pat on the shoulder, holding a door open, a quick selfie or a high five. We talk to each other through the proximity of our hands and Anna Olsson understands the world through her loom, where her hands are at work.
