3rd day in Ohrid June 5

Our plan for today was to update our weblog and I wanted to go back to Trajkov to shoot his metal pictures. I got to his place around 1pm together with Kliment. He took us to his „atelier“very small place in the basement. Here he is welding his metal paintings and sculptures. I shot some video and than we took some of his metal painting outside and made pictures. He started to make his metal artwork 4 years ago and he has made more than 60 paintings. He had few exhibitions in Ohrid and last week he had an opening exhibition in Stipa. But he told that he never sold any of his paintings. Hi things it is because it is something new and that people do not understand it. His friend Pan was also there and i have made few pictures of him and he told me that he was taken to Czechoslovakia when he was 15 years and he lived there for 7 years, but he could not speak much Czech.
On the way back i have asked Kliment that if it is possible to talk to his parents who grow up in Czechoslovakia. Their hose was just around the corner so we came to visit them. They were very open and happy that they can speak in Czech and I could record their story on video. He father told me that he was only 5 years when he was taken to Czechoslovakia. He and his wife grow up in orphanages. He told me that there were only children from Macedonia. There have been more that 12000 kinds taken to Czech Republic and Poland. There are 4 other families who grow up in Czechoslovakia living the his apartment building. He met his wife who is also Macedonian in Czechoslovakia and they married and had 2 kids. They lived in Czechoslovakia for 22 years. Yugoslav government offered them to come back and they gave them apartment and find work so they have returned and lived in Ohrid.
After the meeting with Kilments’ parents we went back to the theatre and met with Ceca. We spent the evening updating the web. We met with Klimet at 9 and went to his apartment and listen to his music. Hi is a very good guitar player but since there are not too many tourist in Ohrid it is difficult for him to find work.
