In Lucas’s illustrations, you will often meet funny characters interacting with real-life scenarios in the photos. We were curious to learn the process, from finding a photo to thinking of an idea.“I have fun doing it. I travel through Instagram accounts looking for my victims and wait for an image to inspire me. I don’t choose the photos; they make themselves seen. I think the surprise of being invaded is better than the anticipation of imagining what I would do with the submitted photo. I like the freedom of creation. Some photos call for a ‘poetic’ invasion, others with more blatant humor. There are times when I feel I must speak about something that disturbs me and express an opinion. At other times, I find silence to be the best response,” explained Lucas.

‘Photo Invasion’ has garnered a lot of attention and popularity on social media platforms to the extent that people ask him to invade their photos. We asked Lucas to share what has been the most memorable or unexpected reaction he has received from someone whose photo he invaded.“The first unexpected response was acceptance. Initially, I anticipated that people might feel I was infringing upon their photos, but the reality was quite the opposite. Now, there are more than 169k photos tagged with #IWantToBeInvaded. Another wonderful reaction occurred at the project’s inception when I began to ‘invade’ the photos of strangers. After invading the photo of an Austrian amateur photographer, I received numerous requests for ‘invasions’ from a dynamic group of Instagram photographers. They even invited me to Vienna to conduct workshops and partake in celebrations over three days,” shared Lucas.He continued: “The most rewarding response came from an Education Institute in Taiwan that invited me to display my work and conduct a week of workshops for children and teenagers. It was super cool to see folks from all walks of life digging my work, and my time there was a real eye-opener, showing me just how universal art can be.”
