Hommage to Defiance semi AA

Using the “Golden Rectangle” and the the “Golden Section” I built this new object, giving ‘minimalism’ that extra little ‘twist’ of the defiance of gravity. Eat your heart out, Donald Judd!

Inspector New

“I love the idea of encasing and compressing plastic into a wooden structure. This piece (Inspector) gives the illusion of an architectural floor-plan being magnified or closely inspected.”

Time = Energy Model (Falsecypress, plywood, plexiglass and waxed string, 70.5cm x 45cm x 10.5cm, Dirk Marwig 2014)

“I have always been obsessed with the concept of “Time”(‘Zeit’, in German)- Its behavior and inconsistencies. I believe that ‘Time’ is Energy and that like all other energies can somehow (in the future) be fully understood and positively applied. But seeing just how sluggish mankind is…. this will take a while.”

Time=Energy front view

(Time = Energy Model seen from the front-slightly looking from above) This piece really relaxes me. I cannot put into words how it makes me feel. Mesmerizing. Timeless, possibly.

Wanna Dance? : Quieres Bailar?

I’m sure this is a situation that many of us have encountered:…in a club, out of your mind and suddenly someone asks you to to dance…you look at them and they look like this! hahaha. You think: “I must switch drugs, this does not look good, …bad trip!”

A Landscape for the Pyromaniac A

My mother always told me when I was young : “Why don’t you just paint landscapes? People would buy them and you could make lots of money.” -Well here’s a landscape for you! :)
This painting shows the view of the burning landscape via satellite and a the panoramic view from the ground all in one.
