Distant Electric Vision by Jon Lewis
Vessel Gallery presents ‘Distant Electric Vision’, a new & highly anticipated solo show by glass artist, Jon Lewis. Engaged with themes of recycling, the creative synthesis of glass with metal, and the transformation of outmoded consumer products into art, this exhibition will reveal brand new works conceived from the artist’s unlimited imagination. From scorched Meteorites to sculptural Trains - holding aloft their own abstract billboard declarations - this exhibition will surprise, intrigue and astound.
