Marcel Witte - A color, an animal

A color, an animal

The artwork is balancing at the border between realism and fantasy. Detailed animal figures against one background colour.

dated 2009 until 2009, comment to the artist (click on an image to enlarge an artwork)

  • Goldfish caught in a glass bottle. The more he consumed, the more he will be removed from his 'freedom'.

  • In the past, the Dutch Belted cow was used as park cattle on country-seats. Off course it was not done when you look out of your splendid house, and see ordinary cows. But wouldn't it be more beautiful when they would be appropriate at the baroque wallpaper of the tearoom...

  • Connected

    2009

    To prevent that they are floating away, sea horses are looking for some grip. But if you can't find something, a tail of a fellow will also give some protection. You will also be floating away, but it is less 'scary' when you are together...

  • The society is becoming a race against time. Most of it, we are trying or have to do more then we can. Every day (Alldays) we need to react and act faster (DHL, Nike), standing still is 'killing' (Baleine seasalt) and our food have to give us a energieboost (Red Bull, Dextro) or just let us relax (Kit Kat, Pickwick Green Tea).

  •  Chick of Emperor Penguin under glass cloche. The painting is an imagination of the global warming.
