From 11 July to 12 September, in the Bertschy Hall of the Art Gallery “Romas Dārzs”, this exhibition, which is organised by the Liepāja 2027 Foundation, brings together works by 14 emerging artists from Liepāja.

It's a creative reflection on the post-war legacy along the Baltic Sea coast and the environmental challenges that shape everyday life in the region. The exhibition makes us think on the imprint of military heritage, with one series documenting the daily work of a State Environmental Service inspector. Several works cast a spotlight on Karosta, the storied coastal neighbourhood of Liepāja, where young artists through photographs, installations, and time-based media come face to face with the values, fears, and worldviews of a generation slowly fading into the background. In their still life and quiet photographic meditations, artists lay bare a sobering truth: our cultural heritage is slipping through the cracks — swallowed bit by bit by creeping nature and the fallout of human carelessness. The exhibition is open Tue to Sat from 12:00–18:00, and Sun 12:00–15:00. On Sea Festival Day, 12 July, admission is free.
