The Lake Twins began collaborating during their BA Hons at Central Saint Martins College of Arts and Design.



The Lake Twins are identical mirror twins who work collaboratively. They are particularly interested in making drawings and films centering on exploring an apparent psychological bond between themselves.

The presence of one figure throughout their work is significant to their practice because it represents their desire to own a unified identity. Through this subject they live as one and can exist as a whole. As female artists and twins, The Lake Twins believe that if they used one female figure she could only represent half of them. This is why they do not use female subjects in their work. The sole male subject therefore represents not half of them but a whole.
