• Illustration — Sculpture LUCE in front of the Meander Medical Center in Amersfoort, The Netherlands Ervinck creates, in his own words, a dialogue between craft and technology and between the virtual and the physical. His shapes are inspired by the work of Henry Moore (1898–1986), Barbara Hepworth (1903–1975), and Hans Arp (1886–1966). The futuristic blob architecture (a term of Greg Lynn) and the work of Zaha Hadid also inspire him. Ervinck often used the color yellow in his work, but he has also used other colors.

Ervinck has investigated alongside more conventional work also known as the "artistic possibilities of the digital revolution". The boundaries of the virtual space he wants to make tangible the complex forms of 3D prints that are impossible to do manually (such AGRIEBORZ 2009). He also makes 3D printing, animation videos, digital and ordinary drawings interact with each other.
