Riga within the pixelated realm of Minecraft.
The piece overlays Minecraft coordinates onto the corresponding real-world bridge coordinates, creating a portal that intertwines the tangible and the virtual.
Inspired by the block-like buildings in Kengarags and influenced by the nostalgia of post-internet 2000s culture, RigaCraft is a playful blend of irony, isolation and a touch of nostalgic charm speculating on the integration of the city's real-world bridges into the virtual landscape of Minecraft.

initiation
Initiation delves into the peculiar space of a generation born on the cusp of the internet's rise, where childhood photos exist in a unique liminal realm—captured in an era before widespread digitization.
The whimsical collages playfully craft nostalgic fabrications of imagined childhood scenes, inviting a light-hearted exploration of the intersection between reality and fabrication.

A2 LULLABY
A2 Lullaby is an audio project inspired by the nightly sounds of the A2 highway. I noticed a surreal, distinct whistle at a specific time at night that creates echoes throughout the entire neighborhood. The piece includes the sound of passing cars and the strange whistle on A2, and me playing the synthesizer in response, creating a duet.

A2.exe is an immersive experience between art and interactive gaming. The objective: follow a glowing orb that unveils intimate hidden settings.
Dedicated to my neighbor in a distant building, the game captures the essence of an illusion of companionship, where shared moments, like the glowing ember of his cigarette cutting through the urban nightscape, unveil a perceived closeness within the physical separation.
