Andrija Zoki?
This is the artist profile of Andrija Zoki?. Born in 1978 in Split, Croatia. In 2003 I earned MasterĄ¯s Degree in Sculpture and I am currently working as an art professor. At the same time I started working on bonsai, and I realized that bonsai is a living sculpture that represents an old tree in nature. For this a living medium is needed and this is yamadori.
In 2008 I became a student of Walter Pall who is responsible for my growing passion and love for bonsai. Since then IĄ¯ve been building my collection which is presented in galleries on this site. Those trees are not for sale, they are my personal projects. I have exhibited on several bonsai exhibitions such as Trophy (Belgium), Generation Bonsai(Germany), BonsaiAutumn (Switzerland), exhibition in Split (DiocletianĄ¯s Palace, organized by Croatian Association of Visual Artists)Ą and more. Recently IĄ¯ve founded Andbonsai Studio with my little team where I will be organizing students workshops.
