Both Sides in Arena Riga
Stage Development in Latvia – design by Didzis Jaunzems Architecture
6 May 2019
Abas Malas
Design: Didzis Jaunzems Architecture
Location: Riga, Latvia
Multimedia dance performance Both Sides (Abas Malas) is created as the culmination event of the Latvia’s centenary.
Through the music, choreography, scenography, video and light projections, the story of the emergence of Latvia and experience of the last hundred years is told.
2000 sqm large stage is designed in the shape of Latvian flag.
The flag is used not only as a symbol of the nation, but also as a space making element. It creates dance floor for large scenes of groups of dancers and smaller spaces for soloists.
The polygonal surface of the scenography works also as a giant video projection screen for Latvian history photo and video interpretations.
