For example, by loosely approximating the shape or style of a given object – usually but not always a sculptural artefact or architectural feature – Arnold has sought to resemble: a scarecrow in "Scare Crow" (Conklin Forks, New York, 1986), a closet in "Closet Corner" (Los Angeles, 1987), a sculpture in a fountain in "A Sculpture in a Fountain" (Los Angeles, 1988), a hood ornament in "Hood Ornament" (Sun Valley, California, 1992), a gargoyle in "Gargoyle" (Los Angeles, 1992), a statue in "Statue" (Los Angeles, 1993), an appendage (to a telephone pole) in "Appendage" (Los Angeles, 1993), part of a marquee in "Marquee" or the façade of a building in "Façade" (Geneva, 1996), or is shipped as freight from Austria to Germany in "Freight" (Linz to Cologne, 1993).
