“You are me.” This video-installation is based on a
true story about the silent war between twin-sisters June and Jennifer
Gibbons about the right to have once own personality and the tremendous
fear to lose each other, not be able to live with or without each
other. They created a world where they excluded all outside contact,
making a pact not to speak to anyone but each other, transferring
their anger to the outside world, us against them, like a gang of
two. This piece plays with the provocation that can be considered
sane or insane, and tries to put the viewer in a position in which
he is not able to judge…
