Johanna Häiväoja: Touch

A work connected to the accessibility of places and people.

Touch was part of an exhibition about the accessibility of places and people. Häiväoja looked at the theme of the work widely - the hand touches virtually the heights of the ceiling but the image looks also like the hand of Fatima.
