The CROZ Facade Gallery continues to celebrate the dialogue between public space and personal narrative with the fourth edition, showcasing Ivana Barišić Tomšić and her evocative work “The Way to School (Put do škole)”.
Rendered in a delicate illustrative style, the mural depicts two figures – a child and an adult – walking side by side, each carrying a school bag. The composition captures a moment both ordinary and deeply meaningful: the everyday journey that shapes identity, curiosity, and connection across generations.
Through her tender visual storytelling, Barišić Tomšić invites viewers to reflect on memory, learning, and care – themes that resonate universally. The scene, though rooted in simplicity, conveys warmth, nostalgia, and the enduring power of companionship.
“The Way to School” stands as a gentle reminder that progress begins with shared steps – with knowledge passed on through empathy and presence.
