His works
Kreasinya banyak terinspirasi dari bentuk dan narasi alam. Arik merayakan bentuk geometri alam dikomposisikan melalui potongan potongan lempengan metal yang disatukan membentuk sebuah bentuk 3 dimensi yang unik.

Rock Quake
“In most of my artworks the element of absence is very present (one of the contradictions) and takes a dominating part in the development of ideas and narratives but, more importantly, in the self-questioning about social codes, emotions, community, development, existence and more.”
“It is not a collection of objects but a set-up of “doors” to new places we have yet to go. Each piece connects to the others and each ensemble makes the statement stronger in preparation of the future to come”. ARIK LEVY
