Martin Assig

*1959 Schwelm

Born in Schwelm in 1959, Martin Assig translates his personal universe of thoughts and observations into compositions of abstract organic renderings and patterns or images, circling around the human body and mind, both often full of color. On one hand, they are a mirror for our present time – a time characterized by instability and fear calling for a return to cardinal values – on the other hand, they are anchored in the past, especially since the artist works his large panel paintings almost exclusively in wax painting, an ancient painting technique that was already used by the Egyptians and Greeks.
