From September 28th to October 5th, the annual media art and technology festival UPDATE will take place in Liepāja. As part of the festival, "Liepāja 2027 Foundation" is organizing an international artist residency.
The UPDATE festival blends technology and innovation with art and creativity, featuring workshops for registered participants and public events for everyone. The program includes masterclasses, workshops for families and youth, a scientific symposium, an exhibition, and performances by artists and musicians.
At the end of September, two artists will arrive in Liepāja – Carlos Munnoz from Spain and Iryna Loskot from Ukraine . The international artist residency, organized by Liepāja 2027, will bring the two guest artists together with local artists in Liepāja, fostering collaboration to create new artworks that will be showcased during the festival exhibition in November.
Carlos Munnoz will share his experience in working with artificial intelligence in festival workshops.
Iryna Loskot will perform a piece about belonging and ecology, which will take place during the Art and Science Afternoon on Saturday, September 28th, at the Tipography Creative Quarter.
