His horse structures have been described as 'craggy.'   "My work is preoccupied with language, this ordering device, outside of which no meaning is attainable.  It is about assessing dosages of order and wondering what it stands for.  I try to get as close as possible to the semantic fiction that a piece made itself while I looked the other way.  By choice, a piece is resolved as it reaches a feeling of open-endedness, as if stopped in its tracks, Pompeii-like, still on its way to a different appearance, unsure whether it is emerging or dissolving."
