An essay as Drager Meurtant, titled “Assemblages: the entrails explained”, has been published end of 2015 in Axon Journal Issue 9 (on assemblage, free on line access).
In the form of a poem, the essence of creation of assemblage can be formulated as follows:
Painting elements
Elementary pain / fits the precisionist. // When hammer hits thumb, / the outcry / of the artist / becomes the glue / of the assemblage. // And paint / drenches the pieces / into steady oneness.
Assemblage, wood, metal, glass, paint; http://www.meurtant.exto.org (2014, in private collection)
Installations are different.
This artist must take more time to get to the essence of installations. Here are just two examples (first image, then text):
Drone just landed in a meadow
This drone does not spy nor harm / except blades of grass / and only if pushed.

Bao Strictcontor
In particular / at the end of day / is the bao strictcontor / subspecies Grohe / at its deadliest. / The bite can come / from the crane-shaped head / and also the circular mails / of the many tails / contain a stealthy poison / that at long stand-still / causes death of veterans. (80 x 40 x 25 cm, 2013)
