Describing her impression of the winners of the '' Debyut'' (Debut) Prize, the critic Lyudmila Vyazmitinova wrote about Ivaniv’s work:

''“Ivaniv's texts seem to reproduce the multidirectional movements of many nested images born simultaneously in a saturated point in space, to which the author's gaze is directed. ..But in all the texts, there is a desire for what Ivaniv himself has called "rising above the panorama" – this sets a certain vertical giving hope for a new horizon for a gaze that breaks through into a qualitatively new space of vision, sensation, and the ability to convey them - with a qualitatively differently organized community of words.”''
