His art practice re-versions our existing notion of space, time, urbanism, history, and abstraction. He holds the experience of the percipient as a key determinant in this process of negotiation around the artwork and its contextual atmosphere. This involves making primary structures that share overlapping jurisdictions of painting, sculpture, design and architecture, layered with fresh communicative possibility.
