Chinese
photographer Gao Rongguo has created a touching series of photographs
that juxtaposes pairs of identical twins in China. That catch is that
they are all over the age of 50 – we get to compare not only their
appearances, but how their lives have remained similar or how they’ve
changed.
Ringguo’s
photo series is a wonderful exploration of nature vs. nurture.
Biologically, all of these siblings hould be nearly identical, but their
different life experiences may (or may not) have caused them to grow
apart or to change in different ways. They seem nearly identical, yet
they are both unique individuals who have made their own life choices.
The artist returned to his native Shandong province to find these pairs
of twins.
