Dorian-Orlando Weber is a contemporary artist, born and raised in Switzerland. Weber deals with various topics in a critical and documentary treatment of society, socio-cultural issues, as well as personal and sometimes very intimate ones. Alltough Weber mostly creates classic oil on canvas paintings, the breadth of his conceptual works does not allow for a fixation on a single medium, which is why the artist's oeuvre not only includes many paintings but also sculptures, some of them installations. He describes his paintings as Neo-New Subjectivity.
Weber is a daydreamer and tries, by means of a coded but accessible language, to let the viewers dive into his world.
