His work focuses on sociocultural issues using bits and pieces of headlines, articles, sheet music, and ads as the background for his stories. Lebsack layers human subjects and thought-provoking landscapes, using the confrontation between his subjects and surreal backgrounds to address societal trends, materialism, loneliness, changing environments and isolation.

Lebsack’s artworks tell us stories about ourselves. They have a remarkable ability to filter our dreams and aspirations while visualizing edgy, half-buried perceptions troubling us about the world. Many of his paintings express courage and offer a form of and engagement with our continually shifting contemporary surroundings.

Lebsack says about his art: “It’s about new ways of thinking for future generations. Hopefulness in young dreamers and a paradigm shift away from conventional reasoning in thoughts and actions. Some social norms can be good but they can also hold some people back, stunting our growth individually and as a society.”
