Creation Myth 1927

"Creation Myth," painted in 1927 by Wyndham Lewis, is an example of the artist's distinctive style that combined elements of Cubism and Vorticism. The painting features geometric shapes and fragmented figures, set against a backdrop of vibrant, contrasting colors. Lewis's use of bold black lines and dynamic compositions conveys a sense of energy and movement, characteristic of the Vorticist movement. The fragmented figures and abstracted forms reflect the artist's fascination with the complexities of modern life and the psychological impact of urban environments. This artwork is a testament to Lewis's pioneering role in British Modernism, showcasing his bold experimentation and expressionistic approach to painting.
