Samm Lewis

Samm Lewis (b. 1989, London) is an artist and tea maker based in Bergen, Netherlands, creates immersive installation to explore plant intelligence, neuroscience, and collective perception. Through anthropomorphised characters derived from tea ingredients and geometric structures, she creates sensory environments that blur boundaries between human, vegetal, and spatial systems. Her work investigates how taste, pattern, and atmosphere can alter perception and create deeper forms of embodied awareness.
