American psychotherapist Virginia Satir in the 20th century presented the theory that a person needs 8 hugs a day for good health. Because hugs are a powerful process of positive energy exchange. So, during hugs, a strong emotional connection is established between people, it becomes easier and magically all problems fade into the background. So 8 hands on the painting symbolise 8 hugs. This is exactly how much is needed in order to experience positive emotions that compensate for the lack of support and attention.
