Lewis is represented by Morton Fine Art, DC. A self-taught artist, drawing inspiration from anatomy, physiology, disease processes and his nursing experience, he creates stunning, intricate sculptures out of single sheets of paper that visually combine the aesthetics of drawing, sculpture, etching, embroidery, and textiles. In 2010, he began pursuing the visual arts. In 2008, he began pursuing the arts through the music of the violin. He has been working as a critical care registered nurse for six years.

Lewis, originally from Beaver Falls, PA, lives and works in Washington, DC. He makes repetitive cellular cuts on paper that reveal these unseen competing elements, creating textures and movement that mirror the internal transformations of patients, their families, and himself. Lewis’ work is a visual reflection of the competing elements of genetics, the microbiological world, human intervention through medical care, and appeals to the divine which all have a stake in determining the outcome of patients in critical care units.
