Latvia pavilion: North by North-East, by Kaspars Podnieks and Kriss Salmanis, "explores the artists' relationship to the natural and ever-shifting man-made world. The Project will also investigates the concepts and conditions of identity, uncertainty, and the 'in-between'."
Republic of Indonesia pavilion: SAKTI
The Kingdom of Bahrain pavilion: In a World of Your Own, by Camille Zakha, "explores notions of home and the role of identity in a highly globalised and rapidly urbanising world. His works reflect this investigation by depicting nondescript urban landscapes and interiors, individuals, and snapshots of moments that reveal the artist's astute observations of cultural traditions and social change."
Republic of Kosovo pavilion: Petrit Halilaj, "search of what reality is and how reality might be represented through art. His memories of a rural childhood, his personal experience of war, destruction, exodus and displacement are the very basis of his reflections on life and the human condition."
Chile pavilion: Venezia, Venezia, by Alfredo Jaar
