A presentation of the performance, screening and workshop of Daugavpils was held in Karosta. The K@2 center is located in the middle of a former Soviet warport, and most of its inhabitants are families of Soviet army personalle left behind when the troops pulled out in 1994. Since the turn of the 20th century, Karosta and its parent city Liepaja have figured prominently in histories of the Baltics. Around the First World War, Latvia's largest defense fortress, built by the Russian Tzar Alexander III, was destroyed there as part of a pact with the Germans. In the Second World War, first Germans and then Soviets completely occupied the region. Additionally, the area around Karosta is infamous in Holocaust histories for open executions of Jews during the German occupation. In Soviet times, the area was off-limits to all but military personalle with special papers. Currently, the port of Karosta has been declared an environmental disaster by NATO due to the prescence of scuttled Soviet ships in the harbor and large piles of lead-acid batteries on land.

In the winter of 2001/2002, K@2 invited us for an artist in residence.
