About the Item
Bronze Sculpture with Black Granite base - Edition of 3 - Howard Lewis - "Bilencia" 2023
You would be purchasing directly from the artist.
My sculptures transcend the confines of representational art, freeing the viewer from the constraints of the familiar. I invite viewers to question and discover the uncharted territories of their own imagination, and create a pause—a moment for people to think and feel without the need for clear explanations.
Fascinated by archeology and geologic time spans, my work reflects not only our current time and emotions, but also conveys a sense of time on a grander scale. Objects that have endured natural forces over eons such as fossilized bones and water eroded rock are sources of inspiration. Weathered surfaces and intentional patinas become symbolic of the temporal nature of life, inviting viewers to contemplate the transient and transformative qualities of existence.
Working very intuitively without prior sketches, I create by looking for an internal vision; concentrating on process and letting the art emerge in a natural progression of exploration.
The artist signature is etched with a year on the bottom of the sculpture. Documentation will be provided by the artist.
About Howard Lewis
Before he began sculpting, Lewis started as a photographer, went to film school, and continued to work as an advertising and editorial photographer where he photographed for international clients. At the same time, he was the photographer for the renowned Tallix foundry where his interest in sculpture originated. Lewis credits the influence of photographing sculpture for Tallix and meeting great artists as the lead in to later creating three-dimensional art.
Lewis also developed an interest in science and innovation. He was fortunate to meet prolific inventor and scientist Dr. Edwin Land (CEO and Founder of Polaroid) which furthered his passion for integrating science into his art. Eventually, he left the commercial photography business and created sculpture for self-expression. Along the way, he ventured into creative parallel initiatives such as new product development (he holds three patents) and experimenting with industrial design. These activities influenced his sculpting which became immensely important to his growth in creating his artistic vision.
Lewis’ art is widely collected by individuals, in several corporate collections and exhibited in galleries and cultural centers internationally. This includes the Gladstone Regional Museum and Gallery in Queensland, Australia; the Provincetown Art Association and Museum in Provincetown, Massachusetts; the James A. Michener Art Museum in Doylestown, Pennsylvania; the Alden B. Dow Museum of Science in Midland, Michigan; the Black Box Gallery in Portland, Oregon; the Courtyard Gallery in Connecticut; and the Grey & Gove Gallery in New York City.

Howard Lewis
Lewis started photographing when he was a teenager and continued through film school. He went on to work as an advertising and editorial photographer where he photographed for international clients like Taylor Wines and General Foods. Lewis’ fine art photographs have been in several museum exhibitions including the Michener and Dow museums as well as in major corporate collections. Even while he did commercial assignments, Lewis always photographed for himself as an expression of a specific vision. He mostly photographed in black and white, and studied with O Winston Link, Joyce Tenneson and many others. Lewis developed an interest in creating images related to science and innovation. He was fortunate to meet prolific inventor and scientist Dr. Edwin Land (CEO and Founder of Polaroid) which furthered his passion for integrating science into his photographs. Polaroid materials became part of his way of sketching photographically. Eventually, he left the commercial business and photographed extensively for self-expression. He ventured into parallel initiatives such as new product development (he holds three patents) and creating welded metal sculpture. All these activities influenced his photographs, especially sculpting which became immensely important to his growth in creating his still life images. Lewis’ photographs have been exhibited in galleries and cultural centers internationally, including the Gladstone Regional Museum and Gallery in Queensland, Australia, Florida Museum of Photographic Arts in Tampa; the James A. Michener Art Museum in Doylestown, Pennsylvania; the Alden B. Dow Museum of Science in Midland, Michigan; the New York Center for Photographic Arts; the Black Box Gallery in Portland, Oregon; the Courtyard Gallery in Connecticut; and the Grey & Gove Gallery in New York City.
