Dylan Lewis

Dylan Lewis is a South African painter and sculptor based in Stellenbosch.

Dylan Lewis, who began his career as a painter, later turned his full attention to sculpting the wildlife of Africa. Lewis conveys his fascination with the habits and movements of wild animals and especially big cats: jumping and pulling, resting and hunting - their expressive physical forms are mesmerizing in the sculptor's works.

Over time, Lewis's works become more abstract, although they remain recognizable: he gradually switched to human figures. Naturalism receded into the background, giving way to the mystical. Some sculptures are missing heads and legs, others are masked, others have grown wings - it is obvious that the artist is trying to show the commonality of all life on Earth.

Dylan Lewis has created a unique sculpture garden where some of his most famous bronze pieces can be seen in their natural environment.
