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…

Everything is only a Trick (Free-standing plywood construction with titanium white oil wash, 75cm x 63cm x 14.6cm, Dirk Marwig 2015)
Here’s the ‘Trick’ : This object is perfectly balanced from the inside and that’s why it stands on any hard and level surface the way you see it in the photo. It won’t fall unless you push it. -If you…

Hommage to Defiance-side view- (Lacquered plywood construction with plexi-glass base, 44cm x 47.3cm x 7.5cm, Dirk Marwig 2014)
-This object is based entirely on the “Golden Rectangle”. The ‘Golden Section’ or the ‘Divine Section’ can be seen clearly if you look at where the red lines intersect. Also notice how the red lines run perfectly parallel and perpendicular…

Inspector (3643 plastic straws, Ash and plywood, 56.8cm x 38.3cm x 7,4cm, Dirk Marwig 2014)
“I love the idea of encasing and compressing plastic into a wooden structure. This piece (Inspector) gives the illusion of an architectural floor-plan being magnified or closely inspected.”

Time = Energy Model (Falsecypress, plywood, plexiglass and waxed string, 70.5cm x 45cm x 10.5cm, Dirk Marwig 2014) “I have always been obsessed with the concept of “Time”(‘Zeit’, in German)- Its behavior and inconsistencies. I believe that ‘Time’ is Energy…

Time = Energy Model (Falsecypress, plywood, plexi-glass and waxed string, 70.5cm x 45cm x 10.5cm, Dirk Marwig 2014)
(Time = Energy Model seen from the front-slightly looking from above) This piece really relaxes me. I cannot put into words how it makes me feel. Mesmerizing. Timeless, possibly.

Three dancing girls or ballerinas that also look like a piece of barbed wire. This ‘Dance of Captivity’ can be used as a metaphor for many situations in life. It could also be a good logo for the North Korean…

Mind-Shift -Don’t bug me- (Standing plywood construction with gesso and Bic-pen, 35cm x 23.5cm x 10.5cm, Dirk Marwig 2014)
I love working with Bic pens—It’s messy, raw, basic and spontaneous. This drawing/object brings out the cool qualities of the Bic-pen which almost every person on this planet has in their house. I need to do something like this once…
