"These paintings manage to be both intimate and distanced. The intimacy belongs to their source in the artist's snapshots over a 30-year period: while the uniform colouring (dark sea green, black and white) and stylised interpretation of photographic shades of grey by flat areas of colour create a mechanical feel. D'Arcy's treatment of his subject matter - events and people encountered as a soldier in Vietnam 1969-70 and in commemoration of that war since - is coolly dispassionate, in the tradition of the classical memento mori. War and mortality: timely themes."
