'BECOMING'

A collection of paintings by multi-award winning artist, Lewis Deeney.

A student of Yoga and meditation, Deeney’s work explores the self in relation to technology. Looking inwards, to his own conscious experience, and then outward to humanity, he examines our existence in a technologically advanced world.

“My work poses questions: Who are we in relation to technology? Who do we believe ourselves to be now? Can you still see yourself in another person and them in you? In this way, my paintings are an environment for self-exploration, the doorway into the unconscious mind.” says Lewis

The artist grew up in Dumbarton before moving to Dundee to pursue a contemporary art degree in which he graduated with a first-class honour in 2020. He has since earned an MFA Art & Humanities and continues to win prizes for his work.

“This is one of the most outstanding artists we’ve been able to attract to the fire station. His work is the product of deep contemplation, but is also very finely crafted. I know the show will be a great success.” says gallery curator, Ian Moir.

The exhibition runs from Friday 7th of January to Sunday the 30th January. 

Entry is free.
