Enchanted by the intricate symphony of nature's rhythms, the alluring dance of urban sensuality, and the kaleidoscope of patterns and hues, Sydell Lewis, an audacious experimenter in the world of painting and printmaking, masterfully distills these emotions into captivating layers of innovative visual narratives. Through the captivating medium of digital pigment printing, a dynamic fusion of painting and printmaking comes to life, birthing uncharted realms of creative exploration. Guided by the twin forces of science and dance, Sydell's artistic expression is a harmonious dance of meticulous order and graceful fluidity. Sydell's artistic journey commenced in the halls of grade school, blossoming into a fervent passion that led her to wield a brush at the tender age of 10. The illustrious New York High School of Music and Art recognized her talents, providing a canvas for her to study drawing, painting, and design. This journey continued at Cooper Union Art School, where her creative vision continued to flourish. Sydell's intellectual curiosity, equally drawn to the worlds of science and art, beckoned her to the realm of chemistry, culminating in a Bachelor of Science degree from the venerable University of Michigan. Imbued with a scientific spirit, she delved into research projects at esteemed institutions including the National Institutes of Health, Columbia University Medical Center, Space Science in Berkeley, and UCSF Medical Center. During this vibrant period, her exploration extended to the realm of printmaking. In a seismic shift in 1992, Sydell Lewis embarked on a transformative journey, bidding farewell to the scientific realm and embracing the mantle of a full-time painter and printmaker. The year 2010 marked a monumental juncture, as the acquisition of her first professional Epson pigment printer, coupled with the indelible influence of David Hockney, propelled her into the captivating world of digital printmaking. Sydell Lewis' narrative is a testament to the intricate tapestry of creativity woven through the threads of her life—a tapestry that defies boundaries and embraces innovation, leaving an indelible mark on the canvas of artistic expression.
