Uroš Weinberger is an award-winning visual artist who has created several completed cycles of paintings between 2002 and 2022. His artistic activity is characterised by the diverse dynamics of solo and group exhibitions in Slovenia and internationally. He creates in the fields of contemporary painting, murals, intermedia installations and music.
In the Habitat exhibition, the artist thematically refers to the forms of habitat inhabited by humans. This first spread in nature, and then sought a way into space. Subjects from the field of the natural sciences inspired the artist to develop a new artistic approach. In his artworks, he combines figurative and op art techniques with a simultaneous fascination with space exploration. The artist critically questions the "fantastic" notions of commercial flights into space and expeditions to planet Mars, i.e. to environments inhospitable to humans. At this point, the artist thinks of the future and of new generations of people who may not be unfamiliar with such forms of life. The third habitat that the artist contemplates is the virtual world, an immaterial environment to which social reality is migrating.
