Abstract
The following four embroideries from the series:
Holy Rowan by the Saivo Lake
Too little space left for hazard pictograms
The Plan Never Completed
Uncertainty
The work comments on the iron ore mine plan for the village of Hannukainen, in the landscape of the national park: to the lands of the midnight sun, candle spruces, cloudberries, and mushrooms. Symbols of protection and danger frame pictorial themes, as traditionally seen in blanket embroideries. Some of the embroidery patterns are only sketched with basting thread, hinting that the mining project may not come to fruition
