ORIWAKO (Oil on wood panel, 91.5cm x 61cm, Dirk Marwig 2016)

ORIWAKO

This painting was in my studio for more than a year and yesterday I finished it adding the last few essentials it needed. While I was working on it the name “Oriwako” kept going through my mind. I later looked

Untitled 2016 copy

This is the result of the repetition of the same ‘free-form’ 26 times over. The 1st sequence of 13 being the full colour spectrum connected to the 2nd sequence of ‘the white to medium grey’ spectrum (also 13). After this

Reach You With My Mind (Oil on plywood-irregular pentagon shape, 45.5cm x 71.8cm, Dirk Marwig 2016)

Reach You With My Mind A

This painting looks like as if it has been photographed close-up style with a ‘wide angle macro’ lens. But it’s not. This is what the painting actually looks like when photographed from a straight-on position. The irregular pentagon shape is

Mediterranean Chic -different angle- (Shaped plywood object with oil, 41cm x 80cm x 25.5cm, Dirk Marwig 2016)

Mediterranean Chic  2nd angle

This was fun to photograph. It has so many cool angles because of the ‘shape’ and ‘bend’ given to the plywood. On top of that the distorted lines with 2 external “flight points” which correspond to the ‘essence’ or flow

Phenomenon (Oil on stretched thick hardened cotton cloth, 91.5cm x 91.5cm, Dirk Marwig 2016)

Phenomenon

This one is difficult to explain. It just happened. It freaks me out. Just look at it for a while and you’ll know why. -We always see ‘things’ but are not aware of what exactly we are witnessing until we

Bench (Reclaimed fir with construction plywood and coloured plywood inlay, oil stain and wax, 43.3cm high, 136.5cm long, 52cm deep, Dirk Marwig 2016)

Bench A

Ever since I’ve stopped smoking I’ve been making more ‘practical’ or ‘useful’ things than ever before within a short time-span (chairs, lamps and now out of all things a “bench”) -I don’t know if this is good (it certainly is
