figment 2009



negotiationofspace at Figment2009 on Governors Island begins our journey, setting the tone for further discovery. With the involvement of the public and fellow twins, paths will be created and leads followed. This exploration is new to us, unfolding in real time. We will draw on elements which intrigue us and others. For example questions.

When meeting twins for the first time a number of questions usually arise. Questions make a good place to begin. A point to depart from.

We intend to explore questions in a various ways.

• Hourly Game show – ‘Be my twin!’
Contestants are challenged to see step into the place of my twin, and answer as her – if they get 5 out of 10 questions right they win a prize. Hannah offers pre recorded answers. Amy is host.
• Call For Twins – portrait in return for 1 question
We want as many twins as possible to be photographed in return for 1 question about their negotiationofspace. (None twins can wear our face and have a portrait taken).
• Question Book
People write questions/thoughts/opinions for us and we will respond someway with an answer through our blog
• Exhibition space will be surrounded by an interpretation of the questions most frequently
asked to us.
For Example; ‘do you feel each other’s pain?’
