Dirk Mietzker
Dirk Mietzker's background in industrial design allows him
to appreciate and find inspiration in what we design and build - familiar
objects such as trains, buildings, bridges and old vehicles. The interaction
of shapes; the play of colours and textures and how light falls upon surfaces
inspires his art as he paints objects in various stages of their own life-cycle,
each piece having its own history and story to tell. Art is very much a part
of Dirk's life since his subjects are all around him - every bridge, alleyway,
crumbling wall or rusting metal container providing him with a subject to
capture upon canvas.
