The viewpoint in the art work signifies not only the very human experience, but also a wider, a general mythical thinking. \u201eM\u201d is created in cooperation with the Lithuanian ambient\/industrial group Girn\u0173 Giesm\u0117s. The structure of the sound is used as a basic structure of the filmed and graphic material of the video work. Childhood memories, attitude towards the past and the present, symbolically meet up in the mood of this video work.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dace D\u017eeri\u0146a<br \/>\nThe Land of Happiness<\/strong><br \/>\n2008, 12\u20190\u2019\u2019<br \/>\n\u201eThe Happy Land\u201d tells about the searching of one\u2019s own home. It begins with finding a proper place. Next step: tidying the place \u2013 cleaning dust, throwing out old stuff of the previous inhabitants. And then, one\u2019s own things appear and find their places. And it\u2019s one\u2019s home till the moment, when, again, it\u2019s time to pack and leave for a new place. Happy land is a place, which we look for, until we find or we don\u2019t. Or we just have to make it ourselves.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Katr\u012bna Neiburga<br \/>\nKroha <\/strong><br \/>\n2005, 2\u20190\u2019\u2019<br \/>\nVideo clip for a poem by Semjon Hanin \u201eTalk to me..\u201d. Translation of the themes of the poem: possibility of a conversation, wish to escape, a need of metamorphosis and hiding \u2013 into the language of a video work. It\u2019s a process of regaining of the events that passed, by the bits that stayed.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Katr\u012bna Neiburga<br \/>\nMagic Things<\/strong><br \/>\n2003, 12\u20190\u2019\u2019<br \/>\nHe and she are heading for an outing in nature. They have taken along all those wonderful things which TV Shop ads offer you to buy every single evening. Her figure is transformed by seductive underwear, joint braces, ceramic dog that signals arrival of a stranger, foldable fence, hearing apparatus, movable meteorological station, toilet paper holder with a built-in radio and more, and more&#8230; Katr\u012bna Neiburga poses a simple question \u2013 what would be if? Watching this film, usually we hear the audience laughing \u2013 what would life become if we would believe everything we are told&#8230; But don\u2019t we? (V.V\u0113j\u0161)<\/p>\n<p><strong>F\u0113likss Z\u012bders<br \/>\nEven Better Than Reality<\/strong><br \/>\n2002, 11\u20190\u2019\u2019<br \/>\nAction takes place in operation hall where operation is being naturally refigured. With the diagonal rotating line beginning and the end of process gets united. (Z. Jankovska)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Anete Melece<br \/>\nVilma Does Not Work Today<\/strong><br \/>\n2007, 8\u201930\u2019\u2019<br \/>\nStory about a man with 4 circles underneath his eyes; he\u2019s called Varis. And a sales-woman, called Mirdza. Also a glove takes part \u2013 with a chewing gum spitted in its face, and a mega-pixel, which slowly digitalizes the world. Vilma has nothing to do with it \u2013 she is not at work today, so a possibility to find a hair or two in a slice of pizza is relatively small.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Gints Gabr\u0101ns<br \/>\nStarix<\/strong><br \/>\n2004, 26\u201957\u2019\u2019<br \/>\n\u201eStarix\u201d\u00a0 is far more about the media-based fame factory for everybody than about the success pack of a certain bum. Formal appearances are just tools for framing far more general and elusive quests, challenging individual and social preconceptions.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Arnis Bal\u010dus<br \/>\nEpisodes<\/strong><br \/>\n2007, 10\u201950\u2019\u2019<br \/>\nBal\u010dus uses all set of tools of the B category movies to create stories through series of a monochrome photography, playing with stereotypes and banal plots about love, hate, good and bad, sex and crime, and power, turning these plots inside-out and creating a new line of associations. Nobody has to watch the entire movie to understand, what the story is about \u2013 it\u2019s enough just seeing some episodes \u2013 with his photo-movie stresses the author.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ren\u0101rs Kr\u016bmi\u0146\u0161<br \/>\nHeart<\/strong><br \/>\n2005, 05\u201928\u2019\u2019<br \/>\nA 5 minutes long story told by a non-material projection on the wall. In principle this is the only means of expression in which to say something meaningful about the meaningless in one\u2019s self and one\u2019s existence. Of course, the word \u201csay\u201d is a complete archaism here and the poetic has long ago become a prostitute. \u201cHeart\u201d is a story about how actually there is only one story. About death, destruction and despair. Every heart destroys itself \u2013 however fast it may try to beat. The rhythm that remains? Everyone can think what they will! But this has nothing to do with a living person anymore. Hopelessly lonely union. If someone should \u201cread\u201d something about love into the story then they are a complete fool!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ilva K\u013cavi\u0146a<br \/>\nBallhead<\/strong><br \/>\n2000, 8\u201903\u2019\u2019<br \/>\nTwo inspectors have to face a mysterious case, again.
