This painting is part of FATHERLAND, an exhibition by Teddy Hansen.
Maybe Danish people are happy because Denmark is so flat?
In Nordic mythology, before the gods there were giants that ruled the earth.
The painting shows 2 giants who, as Denmark is so flat, are playing tennis using a forest as their court. The idea being that you could play tennis where ever you want.
They use trees as their net and a basketball as their ball to ephasise the large size of the people. Trees litter the court as well as the court being surronded by a tine forest incomparison to the giants. In the top left a giant bowls a bowling ball using a town as the skittles.
