Visiting performance In the Name of Love is an artistic work co-created with a local group of Latvian people who identify as LGBTQAI+ and who have lived a queer life in Riga during different political eras. The process of making the work is an investigation into how LGBTQAI+ people experience private moments in public space and how these experiences can be transformed into a performative situation of taking ownership of one’s own image. In the Name of Love invites you to experience a transit from safe distance to close proximity with strangers over a course of 4 days in several locations in Riga. The audience participate in the show with their presence. The event takes place at three different spots in the Vidzeme Market. The viewers are invited to move between them and scan the QR at each location with their phones. The location’s map and additional information will be provided on site.
