UNCANNY SISTERLY BOND
“They whispered about us as if we were not quite real. “ 9Wise Children9 By Angela Carter
Is an identical twin an extension of self? An idealised version of mirrored sameness? Are they each just half an
entity, only able to exist or make sense when the other is present? This is a visual story about two trapeze artists
that share an uncanny sisterly bond, in a celebration and deconstruction of their 8sameness9, a visual journey
through illusions, reflexions and kaleidoscopic views.
