In "(Sn) skrin bore", Et arrangement examines the relationship with incontrollable processes through the lifecycle of the woodboring beetle, which leaves patterns under the bark. These traces symbolise natures slow and unseen transformations. The notion of a shrine - an object that traditionally preserves things - as both an object and a metaphor challenges the urge for control. The piece suggests that it is in the encounter with the incontrollable that we learn to appreciate lifes unseen but significant processes.
