House of Sisters
Until our birth, almost everyone had their own personal space in the womb of their mother. But in my life it happened differently. I shared the body of a mother with my twin sister Sofia.
We were not separated until we were six years old and father left the family. Around this time, I started to separate myself from Sofia. I didn’t want to have a person who looks and behaves like me. Children’s friendship gave way to a struggle for parental attention and fostered an atmosphere of competition.
When I was 13 years old I moved to live with my aunt Zina, and Sofia remained with mother. This cemented the foundation of the wall between us.
After 10 years of breaking up, at the age of 23, life brought us together again.
I decided to create a project about our relationship, on the one hand to understand how to rehabilitate it and on the other hand to tell the truth about the relationship between twin sisters beyond the banal representation of popular culture.
