Here are just 5 angles of this cool headdress. There are so many more. To wear it you must be a divine benevolent or at least aspire to be one!

Manolo-Litho (Cedar and plywood construction with enamel, 164cm x 43cm x 24.5cm, Dirk Marwig 2015)
My art always seems to look like comic or cartoon-ish versions of ideas that I carry with me all the time. I often ask myself the question if what I do is the work of an imbecile or the opposite. This object shows what I meant in the last sentence! The bottom plywood pieces are 19 “Golden Rectangles”, the size relating to the height of the cedar.

New Photo of: Dyslexika-Separation-Rejection -side view,looking down- (Plywood, Plexiglass + String construction, 80cm x 58cm x 29cm, Dirk Marwig 2014)
* This strange object depicts the title: Dyslexia-Separation-Rejection.(I wrote “DYSLEXIKA”…) -The story of my life, since I’m dyslexic. But this has advantages (sometimes) because I get to see the world in a different way.

Cartography, Organic, Random -Super detail- (Oil on plywood, 94.5cm x 75.7cm, Dirk Marwig 2013)
I’m showing a super close-up of the lower left overpopulated area close to the sea Of the painting from 2013 “Cartography, Organic, Random”. Originally I wanted to cover the whole painting with over-populated zones but that would have taken the rest of my mental sanity.

Apollo (Oil on Japan-paper mounted on wood panel, 72.2cm x 63.6cm, Dirk Marwig 2015)
Mankind has NEVER left planet Earth. It’s a nice dream but physically not possible. “Man on the moon” is a big government HOAX!
Painting is it’s own language combining all knowledge (consciously and subconsciously) which the artist has to offer to the world. I really did my best not to control anything in the process, not to think, somehow just being a “vessel” and getting lost in the process. This painting is the result combining my ideas, concepts, shapes, sounds and images reducing them to the bare minimum, tactile and ethereal at the same time. Look and understand.

T.W.I.R.P. -3 angles- (Cedar-and Bloodwood, titanium white wood-oil wash, 88cm x 31.5cm x 14cm, Dirk Marwig 2015)
T.W.I.R.P. stands for: True Wisdom In Relative Paradigms. -Everything can be viewed in a different way (just like changing the lens of the the camera the subject suddenly changes it’s appearance and is replaced by a new one. One appearance is replaced by another simply by changing the lens through which the subject is observed. Philosophically speaking this applies to “Truths”, Concepts and Theories of every kind. What is considered an “absolute” Truth is therefore no longer valid. This little, annoying and ever-present TWIRP reminds you to ‘take your world of ideas’ not to seriously and to be just a little bit more “humble” because NOTHING is “ABSOLUTE”(not even the last sentence)! This object looks like something from the Past or of of the Future, something ever Present.
Rewind, Right There! (Oil and ink on Japan-paper mounted on plywood, 47.6cm x 42.8cm, Dirk Marwig 2015)
Subtle yet Powerful, Calculated yet Spontaneous. Elegant and Beautiful! *It’s a very sad thing that I have to “explain” my work(What happened to Culture and Education?)* -I had this piece literally flying around in my studio for 3 years. Every time I looked at it though, something ‘else’ became visible and finally today(July 3rd 2015) I decided to clean it up, mount it on a plywood board and photograph it. What a process. I nearly tossed it!

The Melancholy of our Timelines (Oil on cotton cloth mounted on plywood, 36cm x 58cm, Dirk Marwig 2015)
I “undid” the psychological effects of the colour “green”. Can green (which is normally an emotionally positive colour) be the colour of ‘melancholy’? YES. Just look at this painting for a while and you will notice a melancholy sadness.
