Heightened Awareness (Oil on Japan-paper, 32cm x 48cm, Dirk Marwig 2015)
This little painting was in my studio for 2 years. Something was missing and last night in a ‘state of Heightened Awareness’ and without thinking I added 4 highlights and suddenly the painting came alive. Wow. -If look at it from a distance an ‘alternate reality’ appears. No words can capture this. Magical.
GAME (Oil on wood panel, 76cm x 122cm, Dirk Marwig 2015)
The format of this painting is a “Golden Rectangle”. The theme is nasty but fun!

FIGHTING WITH INSTRUMENT
(Plywood construction,180cm x 100cm x 85cm, Dirk Marwig 1996)
*The construction of this object from 1996 is so simple: 4 cut and shaped pieces of 12mm plywood connected where the slots are. It was easy to take apart and to set up, to transport and to store. I always put it up by myself and I looked like the object itself (or as if I was playing “Twister”) I made two of this object. I have no idea who has them. Lucky them. The photos are scanned from small photos which I found in a box a while ago.
Moose Coffee Table (Plywood, tennis string and glass, 32cm x 104cm x 86cm, Dirk Marwig 2008)
This table was made from plywood rest cuts I had flying around in my studio.

Fanfarone Testosterone -side A- (Cardboard construction with plywood inlay and encasing and bloodwood base; colour: oil and high pigment lacquer, 191cm x 83cm x 20cm, Dirk Marwig 2015)
Two primitive “machos” showing what they’ve got (to each other!). This male behaviour pattern cracks me up.

Fanfarone Testosterone -side B- (Cardboard construction with plywood inlay and encasing and bloodwood base; colour: oil and high pigment lacquer, 191cm x 83cm x 20cm, Dirk Marwig 2015)
This entertaining and slightly awkward trait of the primitive “macho” who shows off all his colours during the mating season in order to produce and show himself off has always put a smirkish smile on my face! Still does.
Z-Frog Seat-Table-Shelf (Driftwood with plywood inlay, stained, painted and lacquered, 58cm x 48cm x 46cm, Dirk Marwig 2009)
I made this fun multi-use ‘seat/table/shelf’ piece of furniture back in 2009 out of driftwood that I found on the beach.
