Elīna Semane is a Latvian artist who currently studies MA of Visual Communications at the Latvian Academy of Arts. She is known for her photos taken with a mobile phone – self-portraits, friends and acquaintances in various informal situations that are mostly loaded with extreme emotions. She has participated in the previous editions of Riga Photomonth (most notably, her scandalous exhibition/performance Everything is shit, except the piss in 2020) but this year she acts as the main curator of the festival.
