THE ARTIST
The art of Lucas Scheybal was influenced by his stays in Paris and New York. His grandmother gave him a piano tuning key with which he tuned his first piano to play. This event laid a foundation for his musical development. Painting and video composition complement the art that unfolds in the chosen emotional worlds.
He has already passed on all his design and creative knowledge to his children, who have started a new LAKS era together.
Here are some excerpts of his musical and video artwork on his YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@LAKSPAY
