Lucas's work emerges from a process of constant adaptation, where his personal experiences and immediate surroundings intertwine. He approaches each piece as a long, fluid improvisation. His practice often takes an in situ approach, with the location and context enriching the work. Lucas draws inspiration from the beauty and banality of everyday life while exploring the social issues around him. Through these concepts, he seeks to foster openness, provoke thought, and establish a dialogue with the viewer. His creations, often large-scale, reflect a physical and immersive approach deeply influenced by his background as an athlete. His bold and intuitive gestures manifest in spontaneous movements, where he stomps, manipulates, and fully engages with his pieces. Each action, driven by the raw energy of his body, embodies a tension between control and impulsiveness. This process, both thoughtful and visceral, aims to provide an immersive visual and emotional experience, encouraging the viewer to reflect and interact with the work.
