I create for myself because it must exist for me. Now it is mostly about reflecting on what I discover with all my reading and discussion about the new myth and the evolution of spirituality. What is very interesting to explore for people in our generation is the philosophy of fictionalism, how fiction and mythology are sacred, but still allow us to give meaning to our own lives.
About Lucas Nadel
Lucas has been painting and drawing for over half his life. Like most children, he started with drawing and painting, but unlike many, he never stopped. Encouraged by family and friends, his journey into art grew deeper around the age of 15, when he began painting abandoned buildings and the streets together with his childhood best friend. Art became a story of friendship and sharing, and over time, a central part of his life. Later, while studying screenwriting, he began combining storytelling with his painting practice, laying the foundation for Mythologeny.
In painting, which remains his main medium, Lucas explores a range of styles, from free figuration to expressionist approaches. Eclectic at heart, he sees his work as closely linked to the Symbolist movement because of its focus on myths and symbols. But unlike the Symbolists, who rejected modernity, Lucas embraces it fully. He cultivates what he calls a “futuristic vision”, perhaps even a symbolic futurism. Narrative and storytelling run through everything he creates.
