Gamla Galleri Snerk, Tromsø, Norway

The poem Viena dzejolis par lietu priekšā, kas uztaisa par matainu pakausi (ENG: A Poem About the Thing in Front That Turns Into a Hairy Back of the Head) serves as the screenplay for the short film An Art Show for Oto, projected onto a window at Gamla Galleri Snerk. Written as a play, the poem remains untranslated from Latvian becoming a dedication to Oto from Latvia, who lives in Tromsø and whom I have never met. He is the only Latvian speaking person I know in the city.
