"Sweethearts" by Jonathon Rivers

"Sweethearts" is one of the latest offerings from 20x200, the online art gallery. "My own reaction is to vacillate between an almost childlike wonder" said the artist Jonathon Rivers. "It is in this sense that I view See Candy as a metaphor for my belief that even the dumbest and ugliest things contain kernels of intelligence and beauty. It's all about finding a way to crack the nut." Jonathan Lewis received a BA in the history of art from Cambridge University in 1993, and he worked in various museums and galleries until embarking upon a full-time career as an artist in 2000.
