4 artists from the Netherlands (Ashkan Honarvar, Emile van de Coevering, Robin Koek, Sander Houtman) and 4 artists from Latvia (Gatis Stauga, Kaspars Grosevs, Kriss Zilgalvis, Roberts Galvins) met for the first time in Riga. The whole week went by exchanging ideas, thoughts and experiences, inspired from the environment, water, people, Riga and Latvia.
