A canadian artist's exploration of belonging and universal equilibrium. " When I lived deep in the cities of Montreal and Vancouver it was rare to see the tangle of development and nature. I heard about it everyday, but it was like a rumour. "

  " The world in perfect #balance, I find I'm not searching to belong, or for the meaning, but to access the #feeling of #belonging. #loveart "

   @riverlewisart, 2012.

River creates narrative and abstract artworks in oils, acrylics, ink and digital media using meditative and administrative memory recall. Administrative recall as an art process, begun in 2013, is reliant on externally-sourced text as the primary visual element. Alternately, artwork created through meditative recall represents the artist's inner space, and draws from emotional connection and interaction, often using a strategy of landscape-metaphor rather than literal depiction.

River Lewis has exhibited across Canada from Halifax to Vancouver. As an okanagan artist, River previously captured natural scenery in the Okanagan region of British Columbia producing paintings and drawings that interpret the complex skies and landscape in Vernon BC and the North Okanagan in particular. These Okanagan scenic artworks are mainly oil paintings, graphite, coloured pencil, acrylic ink drawings, and make lyrical and technical study for larger Canadian contemporary art work. Current themes addressed in River Lewis' contemporary work include the accuracies and inaccuracies of interpersonal perception and memory, belonging, the journey, as they are energies within the continual rebalancing of all things, or equilibrium.
