Horses of Two Registers

Two bands of black horses face each other — the upper row turned right, the lower row left — each with a swirling halo mane, blue above and red below, and a geometric blanket across the back. The field between them is worked into a dense web of white, orange and grey scratches.

Where the other works in the series are processional, this one is rhythmic: a frieze built on repetition and opposition. It reads well wide, above a low piece of furniture, where the two rows can alternate.
