During my mainly independent artistic career I attended numerous sculpture seminars and workshops and studied with renowned Slovenian artists such as Jo\u017ee Slak and Bojan Mauser.  <\/p>\n<p>During the renovation of my apartment, I was trained in the art of mosaic making. I also designed the interior decoration and made furniture and other elements from solid wood. I worked with Ulrih &amp; Co. on the renovation of an old church altar in Novo mesto, where I gained knowledge in the protection of antique wood and gilding.  <\/p>\n<p>I have been making mosaics and unique pieces of solid wood furniture since 1990. My products and creations have a unique and personal style. <\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.25&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;|||&#8221; custom_padding__hover=&#8221;|||&#8221;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/www.peso-rokodelec.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/peso01.jpg&#8221; alt=&#8221;Miran Pe\u0161i\u010d Pe\u0161o&#8221; title_text=&#8221;Miran Pe\u0161i\u010d Pe\u0161o&#8221; admin_label=&#8221;Slika&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.6.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.6.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221;][et_pb_column _builder_version=&#8221;4.6.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; type=&#8221;4_4&#8243;][et_pb_divider _builder_version=&#8221;4.6.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; divider_position=&#8221;center&#8221; color=&#8221;#ddd&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;][\/et_pb_divider][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.6.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; column_structure=&#8221;1_3,1_3,1_3&#8243;][et_pb_column _builder_version=&#8221;4.6.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; type=&#8221;1_3&#8243;][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;Samostojne razstave&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.6.6&#8243; background_size=&#8221;initial&#8221; background_position=&#8221;top_left&#8221; background_repeat=&#8221;repeat&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h3>Solo exhibitions<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>1997 KUD France Pre\u0161eren, Ljubljana (objects made of solid wood)<\/li>\n<li>1999 Cankarjev dom, Ljubljana (solid wood objects)<\/li>\n<li>2001 Korotan Gallery, Vienna (solid wood objects)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;Skupinske razstave&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.6.6&#8243; background_size=&#8221;initial&#8221; background_position=&#8221;top_left&#8221; background_repeat=&#8221;repeat&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h3>Group exhibitions<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>1990 Eindhoven (clay models)<\/li>\n<li>1995 Kontra Dibidon, Belgrade (models and masks)<\/li>\n<li>1996 Metelkova, Ljubljana (solid wooden tables and chairs)<\/li>\n<li>2000 Equrna Gallery, Ljubljana (handicrafts)<\/li>\n<li>2002 Sao Paolo (chair, part of the Metelkova mesto presentation at the Sao Paolo Biennial)<\/li>\n<li>2009 Mikado Atelier-Gallery (arch, part of the exhibition &#8220;Pure Mirror&#8221; by members of the Meikyo Kan Club)<\/li>\n<li>2012 Mikado Atelier-Gallery (cello, part of the exhibition &#8220;Reflection&#8221; by members of the Meikyo Kan Club)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column _builder_version=&#8221;4.6.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; type=&#8221;1_3&#8243;][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;Naro\u010dena dela&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.6.6&#8243; background_size=&#8221;initial&#8221; background_position=&#8221;top_left&#8221; background_repeat=&#8221;repeat&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h3>Commissioned works<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Cha Tearoom, Ljubljana &#8211; mosaic<\/li>\n<li>True bar, Ljubljana &#8211; mosaic<\/li>\n<li>Kantina, Ljubljana &#8211; clay sculptures<\/li>\n<li>Sax Pub, Ljubljana &#8211; clay sculptures<\/li>\n<li>Pizzeria Tunel, Ljubljana &#8211; mosaic<\/li>\n<li>Greek restaurant Ati, Ljubljana &#8211; clay sculptures<\/li>\n<li>Fossil Shop, Ljubljana &#8211; wood and wire sculptures<\/li>\n<li>Obsession Shop, Ljubljana &#8211; wooden and clay sculptures<\/li>\n<li>Konoba Antika, Novi Vinodolski &#8211; mosaic<\/li>\n<li>Argentinski park, Ljubljana &#8211; children&#8217;s playground made of oak trunks (with musician Jan Tom\u0161i\u010d)<\/li>\n<li>Park of the Secondary School of Woodworking in Postojna &#8211; sculpture of an ant<\/li>\n<li>Park on the former ski jumping hill in \u0160i\u0161ka along Vodnikova cesta<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column _builder_version=&#8221;4.6.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; type=&#8221;1_3&#8243;][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;Bibliografija&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.6.6&#8243; background_size=&#8221;initial&#8221; background_position=&#8221;top_left&#8221; background_repeat=&#8221;repeat&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h3>Bibliography<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Mladina magazine, 7\/15, 1994<\/li>\n<li>Mladina magazine, 39\/5, 1993<\/li>\n<li>Gazeta News, 27 February 1995 <\/li>\n<li>Delavec newspaper, 1995<\/li>\n<li>\u010casnik Delo, 6.
