The book debut of our team member Bojan Pavšek 62,469 words about the Šaleška valley the long way round and the short way round /100 columns from the period 2009 – 2019, column Peta kolona / Alternator (Naš čas weekly), accompanied by an exhibition of 100 prints for the STO columns.

The publication is a reflection on ten years of developments in the Šaleška valley, which, in addition to a constructively critical view, also includes a yearning for progress and a better quality of life together. Each column is accompanied by an associated graphic, which, through visual interpretations of the stories, presents my narrative in my role as graphic designer.
