Welcome to the page of an Olympian decathlete who combines athleticism and creativity by painting with sports tools, capturing the dynamic spirit of movement and freedom in every piece.

Born in Sarajevo, the host city of the 1984 Winter Olympic Games, I vividly recall my father carrying me on his shoulders through the streets during the opening ceremony. This has made a lasting impression on me, shaping me into the person I am today. To add a touch of magic, my childhood home was at Olympic Street number 15, in the Olympic Village, where our family was fortunate to reside throughout my formative years.

 

Pursuing a career in sports, I carved out my own piece of history in 2008 by becoming the first Slovak decathlete to compete in the Beijing Olympics, where I set national records and secured titles across multiple disciplines.

In 2014, I relocated to Switzerland to pursue postgraduate studies in sports management, a move that also rediscovered my passion for art. By 2019, I had unveiled my first art exhibition in Lausanne, which was soon followed by the "Painted by" project at the 2020 Winter Youth Olympic Games and the Olympic Agora project in Tokyo, featuring six paintings that blend my athletic achievements with my artistic endeavors.
