These constructions contain several floors upon which houses, objects and people have been placed, that seem to be part of a system. The human figures are depicted in a rudimentary manner, like dolls or large scarecrows, looking at the world from an observation post. The architectural inventions and Ark-like ships appear to be gargantuan, but are at the same time endearingly reduced in size by the theatre-like setting. Sometimes the stage is also explicit, featuring cowboys on wooden horses in front of a western landscape, or even men in boats on a sea that turns out to be a theatre backdrop.<\/p>\n

After his theatrical drawings Dirk Zoete started a series entitled Study for Cactus Species<\/em> which consists of large graphite drawings in which he draws cactuses constructed from semi-abstract shapes in which he often uses a frottage technique transferring the pattern of wood onto the paper.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text css=””]In the subsequent suite of Cactus Derivatives<\/em> (since 2019) he uses pigment and coloured pencil to draw variations on the cactus, reinventing their shape and branching out into other organic forms. He thus creates an imaginary herbarium that like his theatrical drawings breathe a playful freedom and a sense of wonder.<\/p>\n

In recent years Dirk Zoete expanded his sculptural work. His stylized human figures are composed of geometric shapes, touching in their utmost simplicity. They seem to be distant cousins \u200b\u200bof Malevich\u2019s suprematist figures or the costumes from Oskar Schlemmer\u2019s Triadic Ballet. He first makes a version in cardboard that is transferred to metal and then painted in such a way that the sketchiness of the paper model is preserved. The contours of the faces are first scraped out in a block of clay onto which plasticrete, a type of arcylic resin, is poured so that the positive shape of the face emerges.<\/p>\n
