Ajdovščina trophy is a tribute to movement

Ajdovščina trophy is a tribute to movement

It’s no surprise that the trophy for the S4 winner incorporates elements that are typical for the Ajdovščina.

The cup is a tribute to movement. It includes the wind element and the water element which bring dynamics (into work) and represent movement and constant change.
The Vipava Valley is mirrored in the statue. By encompassing water (the Vipava River, the Hubelj River) and the bora, the natural features typical of the Vipava Valley and Ajdovščina are displayed. In the statue's hair, a strong wind, the bora, can be perceived, which is usually recognized as a purifying force bringing newness and freshness. Water bringing life features at the feet.
An everyman, who lives in this environment, is depicted in the statue of a female figure, defying the environment yet cooperating with nature. The everyman is stepping into the river, which is constantly changing, and walking toward the wind just like everyone who pushes and goes beyond the limits, thus, achieves top results.
