Abstract
Artist´s Statement
Everyman´s rights allow us to pick blueberries in Finnish forests. We pick them a lot for private use, but for factories we often import berry-pickers. Their treatment is not always fair. The blueberries also serve as a metaphor for other natural resources of the Arctic: Will our greedy abuse of them leave us with empty but bloody hands?
