“I tried to tell anyone who would listen that the idea for Triglav—which means ‘three heads’—was simple: it was late December just before the new year, and traditionally people give gifts to each other at that time of the year, so I thought of offering the people of Ljubljana, especially those too feeble or old to venture into the mountains, a gift by bringing the mountain to the city. At home we had a sculpture of three heads, my two brothers and me, and I always thought of it as a ‘triglav.’ So it was perfectly logical to invite David Nez and Drago Dellabernardina, two willing colleagues, to sit on a tall ladder with me, covered with a plastic tarp for a few hours, pretending to be a mountain. We froze our butts sitting there in the cold, but it was fun - and well worth it.”
