A new art wall has been created in Carnikava at 58D Nēģu Street, transforming a visually unappealing garage wall into a vibrant and engaging public art installation. Using Carnikava’s signature colours, black-and-white images, and colourful accents, the wall depicts symbols that are significant to Carnikava – fishermen, the market, the wooden church, the manor, local people, and the museum building.

The new Carnikava art wall continues last year’s project at 58C Nēģu Street, which told the story of modern-day Carnikava. This time, the focus is on Carnikava’s history and cultural heritage.

The art wall is located next to the promenade along the Vecgauja River, making it visible both during a walk and from the nearby car park. It adds to the Carnikava landscape, brings joy to local residents, and creates a new tourist and photographic attraction in Carnikava.

The aim of the project was to transform a visually unattractive wall into an aesthetically appealing and publicly accessible space that also tells the story of Carnikava’s history, people, and identity.

The art wall was created with financial support from the “Society with a Soul” project in 2026.

The project was created and implemented by Elīna Gusāre and Vents Strautmanis with their team.
