Buddhističtí mniši točí mlýnky, já točím kroužky.
Buddhist monks spin their mills, I spin little circles.

Konceptuální malíř, autor kreseb a koláží, základem jeho práce jsou vždy kruhy. Jebavého malířské dílo má rysy performance a body-artového zkoumání limitů vlastního těla. Zabývá se hloubkou i plochou obrazu, využívá vrstevnatosti barevných úrovní, skládání ze čtyř modulů a nezvyklé barevné kombinatoriky. V kresbách věnovaných New Yorku a malbách Kolínských vertikál se Jebavý svou charakteristickou metodou kroužení třemi štětci najednou v několika vrstvách přiblížil světu zobrazivosti a složil hold impresionistickým a orfickým mistrům, katedrálám a kupkám sena Clauda Moneta i kosmickým plátnům Františka Kupky.
A conceptual painter and an author of drawings and collages, his works are entirely based on circles. Jebavy´s paintings feature aspects of performance art and body art, such as experimenting with the limits of his own body. He is interested in both the depth and the surface of paintings, he exploits layers of paints, four-module assemblies and unusual combinations of colours. It is not a surprise that Jebavy´s characteristic method of making rings with three brushes at a time in multiple layers is similar to the world of projection and thus pays homage to the impressionist and orphist masters, cathedrals and heaps of hay by Claude Monet as well as cosmic paintings by Frantisek Kupka.
A qualified copper smith, worked as a river captain and as an artist in a gallery. A conceptual painter, an author of drawings and collages, the base of which are always circles. His paintings have performance and body-art features of exploring the limits of one´s body. He works with the poet Pavel Rajchman on books and installations. He focuses on both the depth and plane of a painting and uses layering of the colour levels, an assembly of 4 modules and unusual colour combinations.
