Ky Lewis, is a multi-disciplinary artist, curator and workshop facilitator based in South London with a practice centred on experimental photography and printmaking. Her interests are history, human activity on the land, environmental activism with regard to local trees and site responsive location work, images are imbued with atmosphere and emotions redolent of her time in nature. Process driven she works with printmaking methods often drawing in the landscape directly onto Tetra Paks whilst making long exposure large format pinhole photographs. Sustainability is important to her and she reuses and recycles as part of her practice. Started during covid, her works respond to the ‘urban forest’ within South London, looking at the value of the green canopy, initially started as a photographic project the work has expanded to include drypoints as a way to engage with the intricacies and emotions presented by the open spaces visited, recording dramatically pollarded street trees as a counterpoint to local specimen trees in parks.
