Being a twin is something of a hyper relationship; one that I feel is too close and too distant at the same time. As a twin I often feel at odds with my identity in contrast to hers. I measure and judge myself against the person that is supposed to be exactly like me. Identical-ness is a myth; no two people are exactly alike so I wonder how and why we are different. I create work that examines the spatial and emotional relationship between my sister and I. I want to map our differences and similarities, draw the line of division between us and also make my own connections. This is not an experience I can easily translate. I'm not sure that a single can every truly understand the pair, but I think it's important to look at ourselves and the choices and events that occur within a close relationship. Our being twins has not as much to do with my interest in our relationship as my obsession with the idea that we are both one and two, we are together while still being apart. |
