"Nowadays, Odin is sometimes used as a symbol within right-wing parties excluding people. To counter this, we used Odin as a contemporary model for equality. His ravens fly around the world to tell him what is happening in the world. One of them whispers it in his ear, after which he takes a critical look at society. Amongst other references he is holding a book with the anti-racism icon on the cover." @studiogiftig July 4, 2022
