Co-owner of VinylOnVinyl Gallery; Gaby Dela Merce has this to add about why they had opted to showcase Arkiv:
"Our first fascination with him was when we saw an article about him online. His lines and curves are so bold and captivating. It was very different from everything else. When his paintings arrived we were amazed on how lucid everything was. If you thought the painting is good in picture, wait til you see the actual thing! What struck me personally was that usually it's the topic or what the painting wants to show that give it life. With Arkiv, it's the strokes itself that creates the energy and being."
