36 pieces from 2015 -Paintings, Objects and ‘Furniture’- A productive year for me. (Dirk Marwig, December 19th 2015)

A good year. Quality and Quantity. 36 pieces (paintings, objects, wood block prints and “furniture”) plus I stopped smoking (cold turkey style) which was probably the most difficult thing I’ve done so far. This is a photo compilation of the

Human Vault (Oil and Bic-pen on canvas, 51cm x 82.5cm, Dirk Marwig 2015)

The “Human Vault”… Dark, Deceptive and Sexy  -I love to work with Bic-pens. It’s fun and the smeary blue ink has a special quality that I like perfect for this drawing/painting.  Again the DNA of the painting is based on

This is the semi-side back view of “Headdress for the Divine Benevolent.” It’s like Cinderella’s shoe: it will fit only the person to whom it is intended. I made this for my girlfriend for her birthday, only to wear for

Henry Moore on Acid (Cherry wood object, 53.5cm x 47cm x 36.5cm, 15.8 kg, Dirk Marwig 2015)

This is just 1 angle of “Henry Moore on Acid”. There are hundreds of them. Since a “trip” doesn’t have a ‘fixed point of view’, this object complies perfectly- many points of view flowing into each other, with only one
