Artist Talk—ARTISTSAPLUSB: TWINVERSE
Join twin artists Amy and Beth Dowell, who work collaboratively as ARTISTSAPLUSB, to learn about TWINVERSE, the newest show in WAM’s Regional Creatives Exhibition Series.
About the exhibition
This exhibition features the collaborative work of twin artists [A+B], who explore the multifaceted dimensions of twinship through TWIN-SIZED diptychs. Inspired by the structure of the sonnet, the artists employ a grid system to arrange pairs of colors, shapes, and symbols that reflect the interconnected parallels and patterns of their shared experiences. Drawn from everyday interactions, memories, and cultural folklore, the duo reframes perceptions of twin identity, navigating the spaces between sameness and difference, individuality and interdependence, as they embrace and celebrate the twin bond as a catalyst for creativity and connection.
WAM’s Regional Creatives Exhibition Series is dedicated to exhibiting art by local artists. This program is a partnership with Harvester Arts, a local nonprofit art organization fostering opportunities for Wichita creatives. Their core values of experimentation, capacity building, and community engagement are a framework for this partnership, which includes this exhibition space as well as programming with local creatives, including performances, talks, and pop-up experiences.
