Urban Zellweger

Urban Zellweger paints directly onto pizza boxes, altering their printed surfaces through layers of pigment that soften or dissolve their commercial imagery. The resulting works resemble quiet interior or landscape scenes, shaped by careful overpainting and subtle tonal shifts. His use of disposable packaging underscores an interest in how materials accumulate traces of daily life.

Zellweger’s paintings draw attention to the emotional presence embedded in ordinary objects. Through muted palettes and atmospheric handling, he creates images that evoke fading impressions and residual moods. The works offer a contemplative engagement with memory as it settles into familiar forms.
