About

I have been actively involved with various art subcultures since the mid-nineties, both as an artist and a curator, alongside periods of working as a newspaper reporter and coding on alternative computer platforms as a demoscene participant. My longest affiliation is with the electronic music scene and its New Media offsprings: in this realm, I organised some of the key raves and festivals in Latvia back in the noughties. I approach an event as a work of art in itself, thinking of the total experience of the visitors; integrating a particular space with carefully curated music and visual, installation and performance art. On a more intimate scale, I have been producing and releasing music, and developing an innovative live visuals engine, which led to performances at clubs and festivals across Europe. For the last many years I have been working internationally as a cinematographer, gaining extensive experience and a robust ability to work in difficult, unfolding situations – but also producing, directing and editing my own projects, most notably ones based in Eastern Ukraine: Frontier Church, the story of an Orthodox priest bringing church services to soldiers on the front line; and Divided Together, an experimental cross-discipline venture involving composite 360 video and theatre performance. Always on the hunt for stories with a global reach from anywhere in the world, with particular interest in topics that touch on the various freedoms of an individual, or society as a whole, including those of spiritual practices and subcultures, and the feedback loop of human choices shaping environment shaping human life.

    Egons and his team once more delivered a very good short doc about an environmental issue. We really loved working with them on this one, they're open to suggestion and work fast and produce good work, shooting and editing a whole film together.

    Egons and his team are really great, they take the time to really get what you're looking for, are always keen on finding ways to make you budget work while producing high quality work.
