spatial practitioner (?)

b. 1997 in Riga, Latvia,  working on the meeting points between art,
architecture, urbanism, and theatre. With a background in Urban Studies (MSc,
Estonian Academy of Arts), and Film, Theatre and Media Studies (BA, University
of Vienna), these encounters encompass curatorial work, research, writing, and
artistic practice.
Curious about the optimistic materialities of post-soviet neoliberalism and the
contemporary project condition within our everyday lifes, I often explore
observed paradoxes as alliances with material properties interested in knowledge
production in the expanded field of architecture. The ongoing theory-grounded
practice gravitates toward themes surrounding the politics of real estate,
institutional practices, feminist phenomenology, and performing arts as a
critical practice. 
Based in Vienna, Austria. LINA fellow 2024.

research

baltic lines, initiated together with diana mikane. an artistic research project
approaching rail baltic as a methaphorical lense to critically reflect upon
connected narratives such as the concept of baltic region, baltic project
friendships, baltics as nordic, baltics as a waiting room. the project aspires
to develop an expanded methodology fostering new alliances and prompts
reflections on where rail baltica's impact extends. baltic lines emphasizes soft
approaches for navigating the managerial orientations posed by hard
infrastructures on human and non-human landscapes while wondering what the tools
for feminist objectivity are within artistic research practice.
this is an ongoing project together with sofie lucia maria carlson, asistė
gaidilionytė, gustavs grasis, danute līva, mattias malk, diāna mikāne, katariin
mudist, eglė šimėnaitė, kamilė vasiliauskaitė. project selected for 2024 LINA
conference in Sarajevo. photo by gustavs grasis.

new energy landscapes, initiated by LABLAB (se), aims to develop a cohesive
trans-national and trans-disciplinary platform of know-how on how land-based
renewable energy impacts landscapes, spatial planning and identity in the baltic
sea region. in the project, representing linnalabor (ee), my work is connected
to paldiski, estonia and its green transition through situated ethnographic
practice.
