Native, 2023

Dirk Zoete's sculptures are human figures composed of simple wooden geometric forms and faces made of plasticrete, a sort of acrylic resin. They are distant cousins of Malevichs suprematists figures or Oskar Schlemmers costumes for the Triadic Ballet. 'Native' has a green skirt, one arm that turns in to a saw in the lower part. His chest is made of spine and two olbong slabs with half circles attached to them that look like two eyes, forming a second face complemtary to the red head with pointy nose. The pure simplicity of forms and playful way the figure has been composed gives the sculpture an endearing vitality. .
