We are [A+B], twin sisters and visual artists working together under the moniker ARTISTSAPLUSB
Our collaborative art practice explores the multifaceted dimensions of twin identity through art, design & poetry
Working across disciplines and between [analog & digital] mediums, we incorporate [process & research], from [pixel to paper] developing a visual lexicon that combines symbols, text, color and patterns that reflect the inextricable & interconnected nuances of twin experience.
The Reward is in the Process
We find that the real magic happens during the creative process itself. It's not just about the finished product; it's about the journey we take together. We love to move back and forth— between the hand-made and computer-aided. From collage, hand-drawn illustrations & paintings, to surface patterns & typographic explorations—We find immense joy and satisfaction in every step, from brainstorming ideas & research to experimenting with different techniques & materials. This shared passion fuels our collaboration and allows our unique style to shine through in everything we create.
BIO:
[A+B] are American twin artists whose shared identity has been the driving force of their creative partnership for over two decades. Together, they reimagine what it means to be twins, exploring themes of interconnectedness, simultaneity, and intersectionality through their work.
Describing their creative process as a "back-and-forth dialogue," they mirror the playful reciprocity of their twinship, which is vividly expressed through the "twinning" of colors, shapes, and patterns in their art.
By challenging stereotypes about twin identity, [A+B] celebrate its generative, empowering and transformative nature. Their art becomes a form of resistance and reconnection—artifacts that document their resilience and shared journey as they explore the beauty of twinness as a living, evolving phenomenon—a poetic and visual language of connection, intimacy, and infinite possibility.
[A+B] were among the first wave of artists invited to participate in Facebook’s Artist in Residence Program in Menlo Park, California. Their work has been acquired by numerous private and public collections. Both artists hold BFAs in Studio Arts from Washburn University and MFAs from Purdue University.
