Workshop — behind the curtain

Photo gallery of my workshop in Visoko, high above Ljubljana. Tools, movements, and the space where time machines are born.

My workshop is located high above Ljubljana, in the village of Visoko — a name that fittingly means “high” in Slovenian. Far from the city bustle, today’s time machines for the 21st century are born.
