OSGEMEOS

Lyrical

2018

This play is a reflection on the (im)possibility of accepting diversity and the other. The fragmented body of the neoplasm—the fruit of unstable conditions—overcomes barriers, loves and denies itself and others, wanders around, forgetting its profession. It frequently and with pleasure divides, goes through dangerous palpation, questions the possibility of contact with the experience of the other. Poorly brought up but very successful, it invites us to a trans-species transition.

The gallery-spanning installation Lyrical, by OSGEMEOS—two twin brothers from São Paulo, Brazil—invites a combinatory experience of dreams, time, myth, music and motion. Through the entrance, the viewer gains access to another realm or a surreal and mystical world combining influences from the artists' collection, family and their own dreams.

About The Artist

Known collectively as OSGEMEOS (Portuguese for "the twins"), Gustavo and Otavio Pandolfo are artists from São Paulo, Brazil, who have worked together their whole lives. OSGEMEOS' work incorporates family portraits, dream imagery, graffiti, improvisation, and images from both folklore and the gritty urban environment of Brazil. Their ever-evolving creations have been displayed in solo and group shows, inside galleries, on the outside of buildings, on trains, on grain elevators, and on airplanes in more than 60 countries. The twins have always aimed to make their work accessible, contributing to a sense of optimism in the midst of economic disparity.
