TO HELL AND BACK (Colored inks on acid free tape on paper,30cm x 22cm, Dirk Marwig 2006)

TO HELL AND BACK copy

Whenever I feel like a loser(which is often), I look at my drawing from 2006 and find a little bit of hope. It makes me feel like everything is possible if I put my mind to it. Focus… Dream… and Lose Yourself in that Dream… and magic happens and everything is suddenly alright again.

Vector-ian Beauty(Plywood, Rosewood and Zebrawood construction 47cm x 37.8cm x 20.2cm, Dirk Marwig 2012)

vectorian beauty

Art, Architecture and Authenticity. The Result of Experimentation: All 4 plywood pieces have exactly the same length.They are just bent in 4 different ways. Vector-ian Beauty is what happend. Simplicity. Playing around has its reward. Curiosity and Intuition mixed with Math. *You just have to be the First(1st) Person/Artist to do it! That’s the Factor that is often forgotten. Credit has to be given where Credit is Due. Simply to “Copy” doesn’t count and has No merit, whatsoever. (I say this because my work has been copied numerous times without giving me a ‘name credit’ and it is frustrating, I can tell you…)

Not That One! (Shaped/deformed 12 inch Record -object- , Dirk Marwig 2012)

Not That One A

Sometimes, when I used to DJ my ex-wife used to be in the booth with me and she would shout: “Not That One!”-in reference to a record I was about to put on. Hence the object and the title. Memory. The photo of my hand was a hand-selfie to demonstrate the procedure!

METAPHOR (Cedar,Plywood,Nylon”Zap-straps”+Oil, 53cm x 55cm x 16.5cm, Dirk Marwig 2012)

Metaphor

For this object I chose the “Hermés” logo because I like the letter “H”. Hermés in greek mythology, is the messenger of the ‘Gods’. If you examine my work closer, you will come across the “H”(letter or symbol) frequently. The “H” for me represents the symbol for the eternal ‘Link’ or ‘Bridge’(like Hermés) to something we are always looking for (just like rummaging around for that ‘something’ we think we need in that handbag!) This thought process is like ‘lugging around’ useless weight because we already ‘know’ -we just have to trust our natural instinct and go with it.

FLOW LIGHT OBJECT (Plexi-Glass, fluorescent light, 34cm x 75cm x 13cm, Dirk Marwig 1997)

FLOW LIGHT OBJECT

*The only tools I used to make this object were: a pencil, a screw driver, a ruler, a few clamps, a heat gun(to bend the shape), a drill, a multiple speed jig saw and fine sand-paper. The plexi-glass was found in the ‘rest-cut trash bin’ at the ‘Resopal’ plastics store in Madrid.
