‘Shapeshifting’, an essay by Laura Twiggs

‘Where does animalkind end and humankind begin? What of the wild and the primitive within? In exploring these tantalising enigmas, Lewis searches wilderness, myth and ancient belief systems for inspiration, meaning and answers.’

'The Rising': Ian McCallum

One day your soul will call to you with a holy rage.
‘Rise up!’ it will say…

Stand up inside your own skin.
Unmask your unlived life…
feast on your animal heart.
Unfasten your fist…
let loose the medicine in your own hand.
Show me the lines…
I will show you the spoor of the ancestors.
Show me the creases…
I will show you the way to water.
Show me the folds…
I will show you the furrows for your healing.
‘Look!’ it will say…
the line of life has four paths –
one with a mirror, one with a mask,
one with a fist, one with a heart.

One day, your soul will call to you with a holy rage.

Exploring our Untamed Nature

Private Residences in Munich and Feldafing, Germany

During the month of October two private exhibitions of Dylan Lewis’s latest sculpture were held in Germany.

The first event took place in a historic venue owned by Prof. Dr. Dr. Peter Löw in the old town quarter of Munich, kindly hosted by The European Heritage Project. As part of this event, Dylan was interviewed by journalist Dietlinde Behncke.

The exhibition then moved to the countryside, where it was generously hosted by the Schumann Family at their private residence overlooking Lake Starnberg. Dr. Michael Schumann gave the opening address and Caroline Schumann then interviewed the artist.

These events were well received with some sculpture editions selling out.

Both exhibitions featured Dylan’s recent work which explores the notion of Untamed Nature within the human psyche.

A unique sculpture titled “Homage to Löwenmensch” was created by the artist for the exhibition. This work was inspired by the Löwenmensch (Lion-man) sculpture carved over 40,000 years ago, and found in the Hohlenstein-Stadel cave not too far from Munich.
