              <text>The works by Ruark Lewis and Jonathan Jones are orchestrated in a colour symphony of reds, blacks and whites. As one enters the space, you are greeted by 'flags' with superimposed printed text, objects that are painted over with stripes, and a curiously long sketch that stretches most of the perimeter of the wall space The audio work start to creep under one's skin as we walk from the front space to the back, like being in a live theatre performance. The sound installation utters, stammers and bewilders. The cacophony range of nuances in 'b' and 's' sounds, are startling and at best, brilliant. As the sound installation loops, we are presented with a range of bare minimal sentences, half uttered words that express Anger (the most distinct), Sadness, Calmness and so on. Ironically, a flag, a 'sign' and an object communicates too, with the stenciled words 'silence is golden'. It leads me to speculate that the works could deal with the gaps of communication, between silences, mutters and tone of voice.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://boonscafe.wordpress.com/2007/09/29/index-of-kindness-by-ruark-lewis-and-jonathan-jones/#comments"&gt;Description from Boonscafe, an Art review blog based in Singapore&lt;/a&gt;</text>
