Sabe Lewellyn is an artist and writer.[1]

That year he appeared twice in Bare Hill Publishing's "The State of Art” book series, one volume for his previous painting work, the other for his new work.[6]

In May of 2015, Sabe transported a boat he spent a year designing, to the Gulf Coast and assembled it to row out and live alone on the U.S. barrier islands in the Gulf of Mexico[7] His current work now deals with the experiences there.

Since then Sabe has added his body as a medium for his work through performance. While studying at Glasgow School of Art[8], he attended residencies at Hospitalfield House, and Art/Earth/Tech in La Cheraille, France and received a Sustainability in Action Group Grant. In 2018, he graduated with Merit as a Master of Fine Arts[9] and was exhibited in a solo show at the Pipe Factory[8] in Glasgow.
