The Door of Perception
Kevin Lucbert draws doors into parallel universes. And he mostly uses the color blue, which obviously fits to DOP. It reminds him of a world of dreams he turned to when he got bored at school. He started to dream away and draw — “There is a dimension of dream and mythology, all these contrasts between the well organized world and structures and the woods, the irregular is somewhat mythical.”
