Artist Registry
The White Columns Curated Artist Registry is an online platform for emerging and under-recognized artists to share images and information about their respective practices. The Registry seeks to create a context for artists who have yet to benefit from wider critical, curatorial or commercial support. To be eligible, artists cannot be affiliated with a commercial gallery in New York City.

STATEMENT OF WORK
As TwinArt, we collaborate to expand our ongoing twin language through art in concert with powerful vibrant color, graphic symbols, and lens based motion. Our work centers on everyday life with an eye toward the women’s experience. We use a mix of familiar shapes and relatable images to build abstract geometric paintings to unite layered design elements with photographic personal imagery; this motivates us to reveal our creative process in a perpetual horizontal or vertical timeline. As an art laboratory, we investigate high tech materials. We challenge each other to push boundaries, working virtually, together and separately continuing to refine and manipulate our art. In our art, we mirror the duality in our relationship with duplicate paintings and sculptures to highlight our twin similarities and differences. We often create installation environments that balance work and play, presenting our own mixed double vocabulary. Our pieces include unexpected handmade and found objects meant to spark wit and joy, including tennis balls, ceramic totems, and a welcoming 3D pineapple. Our work blends humor and satire with deep roots in pop-art, consumerism, feminism, and environmentalism. TwinArt’s multi-disciplinary approach combines media-storytelling with technology, to include television and computers, transmitting an afterglow...a pleasant effect or feeling that lingers after something is experienced. Overall, we aim to create art that fosters curious exploration and experimentation while expressing our deepest feelings of individuality, connection, and harmony.
