Gundega Laiviņa
Artistic director
While I still have the illusion, that there is a free, honest and fearless art that can open your eyes, sharpen your mind and move your heart, I belong here.
Sandra Lapkovska
Producer, production manager
Homo Novus discovered the world full of surprises and I want to show that to others, too.
Laura Stašāne
Producer, head of communication
There are performances that have forever changed my idea about art and what it can do. It’s a kind of experience that I would happily wish for everyone.
Jānis Liniņš
Technical director
There is a community based on love and faith for theatre that brings festival organisers, participants and spectators together. In Latvia, one such community is emerging around Homo Novus, and I want to be a part of it.
Klinta Harju
Festival school and HALL07 producer
Homo Novus is a festival that keeps surprising every time. For those who are not afraid, this is a chance to change their habitual way of thinking.
Madara Sokolova
Ticket booking and sales
I can only imagine what a person might feel after watching every performance of this festival. Once I was very close it. I highly recommend it.
Artis Tauriņš
Designer
That feeling of having peeped into one of many other reality layers to unplug from the everyday environment for a while. Homo Novus can give you just that.

Architects and festival scenographers
Architect should have confidence in the ability of materials to live, talk and affect the course of events without the direct participation of humans. In this respect, the festival theme this year araouses also our professional curiousity.
