Sustainability is a global effort, yet it always starts out small. Each mindful lifestyle choice contributes to maintaining the wellbeing of our planet, so at PAiR, we pursue and encourage sustainable living and ethical consumption.

We seek to give a second life to the things we no longer need by recycling or upcycling them. We sort and compost our waste, minimize the use of paper and keep our energy usage low by employing low energy lighting and appliances.

We encourage our residents to explore the surroundings on foot or by bicycle while staying at PAiR. We also instruct them on sustainable ways to travel to and from Pāvilosta.

Whenever possible, we opt for organic and Fairtrade products. Much of the food on our table comes from local farmers and we promote a self-sustaining lifestyle by running our own garden with a communal greenhouse.

We invite you to visit the exhibition of students’ works of LMA POST department “Used sources” at PAiR artists’ residence at 11 Ernesta Shneiders Square, Pavilosta.

This spring, as part of the Dolomiti Contemporanee residency and under the guidance of artists Nicola Lorini and Kristaps Ancānas, POST went on a research trip to the Dolomite Alps in Italy with the aim of exploring the places and narratives found in these mountains – among them an abandoned modernist recreation village built by an energy company and a 1956 Venue of the Olympic Games. Ideas related to utopia and the spaces that embody them were explored.

Discoveries from these locations are transferred to a new context – in Pāvilosta and PAiR, where POST together with Nicola Lorini spent time transferring the experience in the Dolomites, as well as getting to know the local area, its geography and community.
