‘’Art has become my voice at times when I have struggled to speak in real life. Living with bipolar means that my thoughts and emotions can sometimes feel overwhelming or impossible to explain clearly, so when words have failed me, painting allows me to still express what I'm feeling.

Lewis’s work acts as a conduit between art and science. The supply of information from science fuels the production of visual material, which communicates the knowledge of a scientific endeavour. In short, Lewis’s work focuses on addressing complex thoughts, ideas, and facts in nature and science. Some explore those in which we seem to be overshadowed and overpowered by the vast distances, sizes, or quantities. Others investigate moments of extreme power, creation, and rebirt

Focusing on coastlines reshaped by severe weather events, the works trace how debris—plastics, netting, rope, wire, corroding metals, toys, and remnants of eroding shoreline homes—becomes embedded within sand and tidal ecosystems. These incongruous objects entangle with seaweed and grasses until distinctio
