Umělec, technolog, fotograf, designér, video umělec, schopnosti Levyho přesahují do mnoha oborů. Veřejnosti je nejvíce znám svými plastikami ve veřejném prostoru, instalacemi, limitovanými edicemi a designem.

Tvorba Levyho studia se zaměřuje na umělecký a průmyslový design, stejně tak na další obory s využitím jeho schopností. Arik Levy se nepřestává výrazně podílet na našem vnitřním a venkovním prostředí, jeho práce tvoří veřejné plastiky, stejně tak instalace, které mají multifunkční využití. „Život je systém značek a symbolů“, říká, „kde nic není tak, jak se zdá.“
/
Artist, technician, photographer, designer, video artist, Levy's skills are multi-disciplinary. He is best known publicly for his sculptures, his installations, limited editions and design.

The creation of his studio means art and industrial design, as well as other branches of his talents. /Arik Levy continues to contribute substantially to our interior and exterior milieu, his work including public sculpture, as well as complete environments that can be adapted for multi use."Life is a system of signs and symbols," he says, "where nothing is quite as it seems."
