      In the village of Oodi, Botswana, 21 women sustain themselves by skillfully weaving handmade tapestries. Their hands, weathered from years of weaving, possess a nimble expertise, while their vibrant imaginations manifest in the lively hues they employ to dye the wool. Through their African art, they capture the essence of everyday village life, portraying it intricately in wall hangings adorned with colorful patterns, as well as in the finely crafted carpet and table runners. The price of carpets from this talented group varies based on size and design intricacy, starting from 50 euros and going upwards.
