About us
That's us
We are the family of 5. Two of us Branko Šupica and Danijela Pešut have decided to leave all of the urban life and the 'comfort' of the western world in exchange of the more freedom in expression and more contact with nature and our family life. After we have lived for 13 years in the Netherlands we have moved to our war torn house in Janja Gora village with just one goal: to live a life with more creativity and freedom. After a years of hard trying to get the house repaired and well, we moved definitely in, in the summer of 2007. Together with our three kids Tara (13), Igor (11) and Sena (6) we now try to put everything on rails and to get rolling the way we always have desired.

Danijela is a great mother to our kids, and a very creative artist, being a creative force behind our project. Branko is a pure force needed to get things done. Tourist guide, graphic designer, he is making his way to become fire master and the writer. He has got all the time in this world.

The main goal of us is sustainable living. Being able to produce some of our own food, to sell some of our creative products and to be able to offer a programs to the people that are willing and are ready to try and see something different.

All of this just to have a chance to grow together with our kids and to give them some steady ground to start their own flight from.

Not always pleasant life experience has thought us that only by trust in your self and positive energy flow you can stay in touch with your self and the real world.
Keep the senses open and never stop believing in your own true dreams.

 



Atelier Janja Gora is a place of creation, place of search for the lost Japodies treasure, place of the science of the earth, its character. It is a place of gathering of people dedicated to art and spiritual development.

Earth (clay), water, fire, air, wood and metal are the subject of our research and fascination. A basic elements that within their interaction and the interaction of the creative mind turn into art peace, weasels, sculptures and memories. In its programs atelier offers organisation of the seminars and workshops with the guest atists from all over the world.

For 6 years we are trying to set up our international ceramic centre. In a country like Croatia, culture in the underdeveloped area is not one of the first priority's. But we believe in our dream and hope that there is going to be some more support from government and other organisations. The main idea is building of the place free of national, economical, racial or any other differences made by the man. The only criteria is artistic development, exchange of experience and knowledge regardless of their origin, and working on a better and spiritually conscious world.

These pages are designed to give you more information over our work and to invite you to come along and visit us. See you...
