Anna Olsson is weaving for freedom, hope and human rights
Briefly

I wanted to use my voice for those who can't. I cannot stop the Russian army or regime in Iran, but I can help my colleagues to continue to have a place in public and their work not silenced.
Because I only have one loom, I always have to finish my last work before I start something new. I forget most of the images as new ones replace them, but those that remain until it's their turn to be woven become the most important to me.
When I'm weaving I only see a small part of the work, maybe 10-15cm at one time […] when the tapestry is finished, the magical moment comes when I cut it down and put it on the wall.
