Jurij Hartman (born 2002) is a Slovenian interdisciplinary visual artist working in Vienna. He began his artistic education at the Secondary School for Design and Photography in Ljubljana, where he studied graphic design from 2017 to 2021. He continued his studies at the Academy of Fine Arts and Design in Ljubljana, where he finished his Bachelor’s degree in painting in 2025. He is currently pursuing a Master’s degree in trans-disciplinary art at the University of Applied Art in Vienna. His artistic practice is based on interdisciplinary approaches to painting, design, installation, and multimedia production, alongside theoretical research in cultural analysis, media theory, and semiotics.
In his work, technical images rendered in various mediums are used to analyze the structure of content formed between image, technique, technology and interpretation. Striking a balance between the superficial and the structural, his reproductions of technical images rendered in analog mediums investigate the semantic potential of classic techniques. His prints, by contrast, examine digital technology by depicting its latent base structures. Through other mediums, his work shifts focus to the analysis of digital affect, methods of mediation, and the impacts of technologized spaces.
