T.W.I.R.P. -3 angles- (Cedar-and Blood wood, titanium white wood-oil wash, 88cm x 31.5cm x 14cm, Dirk Marwig 2015)

T.W.I.R.P. stands for: True Wisdom In Relative Paradigms. -Everything can be viewed in a different way (just like changing the lens of the camera the subject suddenly changes itʼs appearance and is replaced by a new one. An appearance is replaced by a new one simply by changing the lens through which the subject is observed. Philosophically speaking this applies to “Truths”, Concepts and Theories of every kind. What is considered an “absolute” Truth is therefore no longer valid. This little, annoying and ever-present TWIRP reminds you to ʻtake your world of ideasʼ not to seriously and to be just a little bit more “humble” because NOTHING is “ABSOLUTE”(not even the last sentence)! This object looks like something from the Past or of the Future, something ever Present.
