A walk around IN THE FLESH Exhibition with exhibiting artist Lewis Deeney.
IN THE FLESH is an exhibition that celebrates everything positive about viewing art in real life, about experiencing it in the flesh. Each artist has been selected for the original and exciting ways they work with texture, pattern, boldness, strong lines, colour, edges and expression. The exhibition features new work by Lewis Deeney, Bethan Radcliffe, Katheryne Morrison, David P Scott and Nicola Wiltshire (also the curator). This show comes soon after the end of lockdown in Scotland, UK. To maximise the physical experience, particular attention has been paid to the way the viewer moves through the space and how each artist's unique style relates to another's. Small touches have also been included to arouse the senses, such as music and essential oils.
View the exhibition online until 26th June 2021 at www.inthefleshexhibition.bigcartel.com.
LEWIS DEENEY is a Scottish artist using laser cutter technology to cut digital compositions out of his physical paintings. Combining expressive abstract painting with interlocking geometric forms, Lewis Deeney’s work is a fusion of polarities and an interplay of the physical and digital. His 'digital hieroglyphs' raise a narrative about our current relationship with technology and question our collective ontology as we now coexist in both the physical and digital. The work is a combination of the real and the virtual, humanity and technology.
Graduating in 2020 with a first in Contemporary Art Practice from Duncan Of Jordanstone College of Art & Design, Deeney was awarded both the James Guthrie Orchar Memorial award and the Farquhar Reid Trust Prize during his ‘virtual’ degree show. He was one of eight artists selected for the Freeland’s painting prize and was exhibited at the Freeland’s Gallery, London. He is currently undertaking an MFA Art & Humanities at DJCAD after being granted the William S Phillips award to fund his studies. Deeney is represented by King House Art Gallery and New Blood Art.
