One Metre

Sara Gomel and Chiara Ficarelli

On TV they announce that from now on everyone must keep a distance of one metre from each other. But how long is a metre? It’s about the same lenght as three cats, or two dogs.

This is a one metre long fold-out book about keeping social distance and wanting closeness. And how that one metre stops people from hugging, playing tag and holding hands, and about how that metre can shrink, until it is so short that people can finally hold hands again.
