“Troy, one of my favorites compositions, makes a direct reference to the episode of the Trojan Horse during the Trojan War. The duality of the present given by the Greeks to their enemies is represented on canvas by a knight piece in the game of chess that springs from a real horse. The way a knight moves in the game of chess is already filled with duality, reaffirming its complex role… and giving me extra inspiration.” – Raymond Nylund
