'Contemporary mosaic is much more than art, it is a way of thinking, finding harmonic order of chaos, it is a poetic play of marble and glass.'

Education at the most respected school of mosaic - the Scuola Mosaicisti del Friuli in Italy allowed Aljaž to understand 'the mosaic processes' in all of its essence. He was immersed in mosaic techniques, learned the secret language of many materials, and laid thousands of mosaic pieces during the study, which paved the way to his independent professional career as a mosaic artist.

His spirit has always had creative energy boiling inside him, and with each work he continue further on the path of discovery. Throughout his career he had developed his signature three dimensional mosaic technique, which structures the rhythms that informs his personal work.
While creating, the power of the message and the idea build up piece by piece, tessera after tessera, and so develops the play of shadows, reflections, textures and colors. The result is an image that urges the observer to consume it as a whole and at the same time invites them to dip into its souls details and to discover the beauty of mosaic structures.

Sustainably oriented works of art encroach into space, co-create it and become an important architectural element.

As a professional mosaic artist, he participate in various projects and education, presenting his work at exhibitions while he participate in art colonies at home and abroad.
