Ancient Breathing / Lewty, Simon., 1991
Commissioned for "The Beauty In Breathing" exhibition. The images read from bottom to top, move from earth to air, and then back again as a metaphor for breathing. A landscape signifies breathing of earth and a mandrake root "screams" when pulled fro the earth. A balloon man adapted from a Chinese Taoist illiustration of psychic breathing, hovers over the sea in a place where air is "worth breathing." The scroll contains automatic writing done as Lewty focused on the rhythm of his own breathing. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.

Episodes / Lewty, Simon ; Hills P., 2000
This exhibition consisted of Lewty's textural works, some overlaid with abstract markings rather than surreal creatures as in his earlier works, others purely textural with more formal lettering. In his introductory essay, Paul Hills writes that in these textural paintings, Simon Lewty "has banished the lure of the figurative...to forestall and inclination to read the painting in terms of illustration, thereby bringing us forcibly back to the work as an object, to the look of the whole, to the matter of the text and its material presence." -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
