Ekspresivnost spregledanih naravnih materialov predstavlja Gregor Salobir na razstavi \u010cas modrine. <\/i>S tehniko cianotipije nam pribli\u017ea kipe\u010de oblike, ki zaradi bli\u017eine objektiva delujejo domala abstraktno. Motivi zajemajo skorjo dreves, \u0161koljke, razpoke v usnju in pogled skozi kro\u0161nje dreves. Vse motive povezuje nazob\u010dana tekstura kot produkt \u017eivljenja in po\u010dasne rasti. Grobe povr\u0161ine pripovedujejo dinami\u010dno zgodbo o minevanju \u010dasa. Drugi element, ki povezuje fotografije, je ob\u010dutek miru. Fotografije niso zgolj pripoved o razkroju in razpokanosti, temve\u010d tudi o miru in zati\u0161ju, kjer se \u010das upo\u010dasni. Vse je zajeto v dolgotrajni proces dozorevanja. V ti\u0161ini se naravne oblike preoblikujejo in v ti\u0161ini nas nagovarjajo \u2013 nikoli v dokon\u010dni obliki, saj so vsi elementi podvr\u017eeni neprekinjeni preobrazbi.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Modrina fotografij je rezultat analognega fotografskega postopka cianotipije. Tehnika je \u0161e danes cenjena zaradi svoje estetske vrednosti, saj ustvarja mo\u010dne modre odtenke, izrazite kontraste in bogate teksture.<\/p>\n Gregor Salobir, <\/b>The Time of Blue<\/i><\/i><\/p>\n Nature is the oldest muse of humankind, where aesthetics are expressed both in the beautiful and the ugly. Natural processes such as decay, breaking, erosion\u2014or conversely, growth, ripening, and life\u2014simultaneously form a unique record of time. At the same time, natural processes offer a dimension of beauty that often goes unnoticed, despite the harmoniously shaped structures that result from them. Organic forms such as bark or rocky surfaces filled with shells create rugged textures into which shadows creep, producing a play of light and darkness.<\/p>\n Gregor Salobir presents the expressiveness of overlooked natural materials in the exhibition The Time of Blue<\/i>. Using the cyanotype technique, he brings us vivid forms that, due to their proximity to the lens, appear almost abstract. The motifs include tree bark, shells, cracks in leather, and views through treetops. All the motifs are united by a jagged texture as a product of life and slow growth. The rough surfaces tell a dynamic story of the passage of time. Another element that connects the photographs is a sense of peace. The photographs are not merely a tale of decay and fracture, but also of calm and stillness, where time slows down. Everything is captured in the prolonged process of ripening. In silence, natural forms transform, and in silence, they speak to us\u2014never in a final form, as all elements are subject to continuous transformation.<\/p>\n The blueness of the photographs is the result of the analog photographic process of cyanotype. The technique is still valued today for its aesthetic quality, as it produces deep blue tones, strong contrasts, and rich textures. Gregor Salobir (born 1989, Maribor) completed his master\u2019s degree in 2023 at the Faculty of Civil Engineering, Transportation Engineering and Architecture at the University of Maribor, specializing in transportation engineering. He has been dedicated to photography for many years; since 2012 he has been a member of the Photo Club Maribor, and since 2015 also a member of the GT22 collective. In addition, he is one of the coordinators of Mi\u0161nica, the only publicly accessible darkroom in Maribor. Since 2016, he has regularly conducted photography workshops for primary school students as part of the Cultural Diary program (Narodni dom Maribor). In 2021, he worked as a photography mentor in the project HDLU \u2013 Artists for Arts Education 6 (Erasmus+), where students under his guidance organized a group exhibition of black-and-white analog photographs titled In Search of New Meaning. In addition to digital photography, he also works with analog techniques and alternative photographic processes. Between 2018 and 2022, he was the official photographer for the Jazz\u2019ma mlade youth and the Prestopi festival (2019, 2021, 2023). His works have been presented in numerous solo and group exhibitions. In 2012, he received the first prize in the photography <\/b>competition of the Lent Festival.<\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Gregor Salobir, \u010cas modrine Narava je najstarej\u0161a muza \u010dloveka, v kateri se estetika izra\u017ea tako v lepem kot v grdem.

Poleg digitalne fotografije se ukvarja tudi z analognimi tehnikami in alternativnimi fotografskimi postopki. V letih 2018\u20132022 je bil uradni fotograf festivala Jazz\u2019ma mlade ter festivala Prestopi (2019, 2021, 2023).
