The Brain is Stuck/Mittelspiegelung (Oil on ‘battered’ industrial plywood found on street, 76.5cm x 153cm x 6cm, Dirk Marwig 2020)

Both sides of the brain (Left and Right) start and share a Thought commencing at different times (moving in the same direction while sharing and participating in a similar perceived goal-). Each side spins at its velocity around its own Axis, continuously overlapping and bumping into one another (like bumper cars tied together, but hitting each other softly). This disturbs and Interrupts the overall encountered experience until the whole ‘Brain thought process’ comes to a fast and abrupt halt.  A “Stop”.  It is stuck, in a no-man’s land. This abrupt “stop” is surprising, entertaining, simple, and so basic that both sides ask questions, hence hobbling and slowing down the required action to be taken! (slowing down the reaction time)—Together!
This painting/object is based on the ‘Golden Section’.
