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…
FIGHTING WITH INSTRUMENT -3 angles- (Plywood construction,180cm x 100cm x 85cm, Dirk Marwig 1996)
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…
Moose Coffee Table (Plywood, tennis string and glass, 32cm x 104cm x 86cm, Dirk Marwig 2008)

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.
Preview of a new cardboard construction (Dirk Marwig, Feb.10th 2015)
This is what my studio normally looks like when I’m at work on something. What a mess- I can hardly move. -This pic shows a preview of a new cardboard construction. It’s 197cm long and will be thicker when done.
The Place of Lovely Ideas (-wall object- plywood construction with oil and string, 51cm x 72.5cm x 3.5cm, Dirk Marwig 2015)
* When I finish a piece like this one I feel fortunate. It unlocks something special(in myself, at least). What you see is full of contradictions that coexist harmoniously, creating a level that is foreign and known to us simultaneously.…

Untitled Construction 2015 (Cedar and plywood, 113.5cm x 73.5cm x 23.5cm, Dirk Marwig 2015)
4 X the Fibonacci sequence of 1,1,2,3,5,8,13 and 21. The interesting beauty of math. The ‘divine angle’ 137.5º was used as reference to cut all the pieces.
