Groševs has worked with experimental electronic music since the late 1990s, and sound in his exhibitions often appears as an extension of visual methods, in which painting also plays a significant role.

  3. Evita Vasiļjeva, artist
    (Riga/Paris)

    Evita Vasiļjeva is a Latvian artist and educator based between Riga and Paris. Growing up in post-Soviet Latvia, Vasiļjeva was influenced by the visual and sonic remnants of the Soviet Era: architecture, abandoned landscapes and buildings, traces of a society rebuilding atop its unresolved past. 

    She works across outdoor sculpture, site-specific installations, and sensory environments, transforming abandoned materials and the ruins of unfinished structures into new forms with reimagined functions. Through the repurposing and manipulation of diverse materials, Vasiļjeva creates a distinctive aesthetic language that weaves together architecture, memory, dreaming, and physical space. Her practice explores tensions between structure and fragmentation, history and future, decay and renewal, while investigating how we experience time as both memory and lived presence.

    Her works often touch on themes of anxiety and control, yet they propose delicate possibilities for coexistence. While conceptually rigorous, they resist a singular narrative, inviting viewers to engage with their own emotions, histories, and interpretations.

     Her work has been featured in major international contexts, including the Lyon Biennial (2022), the 14th Baltic Triennial (2021), and the upcoming Manifesta 16 (2026). Other notable exhibitions include Muzeum Sztuki, Łódź (2020), Kim? Contemporary Art Centre, Riga (2019), Tallinn City Gallery (2018), and Fondation Ricard, Paris (2018). In 2022, Vasiļjeva was nominated for the 8th Purvītis Prize for outstanding achievement in Latvian visual art.

  5. Anastasia Sosunova, artist
    (Vilnius)

     

    Anastasia Sosunova is a visual artist based in Vilnius. Her practice, combining video, installation, printmaking, and sculpture, focuses on the connections between faith and visual culture in a secular society, exploring manifestations of magical thinking and the rituals of community mobilization.

Sosunova graduated from the Vilnius Academy of Arts with a BA in Graphic Arts and an MA in Sculpture. Throughout the last few years, her work has been featured in various group shows and biennials, such as the 15th Gwangju Biennale, the 17th Lyon Biennale, Centre Pompidou, KIASMA, Salzburger Kunstverein and Palais de Tokyo.
