The artist, born in Trbovlje in 1961, entered the scene with the Irwins in 1983, and later he continued his recognizable independent artistic path. At this, as reported by MMV RTV Slovenia, the project At least one cross per day stands out the most, which he started on the first day of January in 2002 and crosses, a kind of artistic intervention in various more or less well-known images of the past and the present, he created until on the last day.

In the massive opus of more than 25,000 crosses, the symbol, which is also one of the key icons of the recognizable Irwin collective, is repeated repeatedly. This was founded by Uranjek together with Dušan Mandić, Miran Mohar, Andrej Savski and Borut Vogelnik. The group is part of the wider NSK collective, which was founded in 1984.

The works of the Irwins have appeared in almost all the world’s most prestigious contemporary art exhibitions, and are also included in many collections.
