Taiwan, 24 July 2013
Last autumn, Taiwanese journalist Stacy Chen visited my shop gallery while preparing a book about Slovenia and Croatia for Taiwanese readers. She wanted to learn more about Idrija lace as one of Slovenia’s landmarks, and through a mutual acquaintance she received my contact. I briefly outlined the history of Idrija lace and we devoted much of the time to my work and the creation of contemporary author lace.
A few days ago she let me know that the book had been published and sent me a scan of the article that grew out of our conversation. I am happy that together we brought Idrija lace closer to readers in distant Taiwan, and I hope the book will inspire many to visit Slovenia.
