"The trigger for his sculpture is most often provided by the particular character of whatever tree or trunk he is presented with. Rather than regarding wood as neutral and anonymous material he aims to collaborate with its natural history, to make his own intervention a human quickening of something already shaped; the forms he imposes can be altered, sometimes dramatically, by the organic destiny still active in a felled tree."
