Back to Square One (Oil and archival ink on Japan paper, 28cm x 22cm, Dirk Marwig 2009)

Back to Square One

This is what happens if you just let things happen without control: This little drawing/painting was in my studio for a very long time- I stepped on it, wrinkled it up and threw it away into the garbage bin, took it out of the garbage again, flattened it out and put it into the “to do” folder. When I had nothing to do one day I ironed it repaired the rip and applied a new layer of oil and voila :it worked! Basically it’s the same painting as before but with that special ingredient: the ‘magic’ of time, the ‘wear and tear’!

FLAG (Oil and ink on Japan-paper, 31.5cm x 64cm, Dirk Marwig 2010)

FLAG new copy

* This painting/drawing is a 3D experiment – Stare only at the ‘red’ line area and suddenly the whole painting/drawing turns into a ‘space’, ‘things’ overlap, shake and move! Subtle OP ART.
