“Monette and Mady are identical twins. They have lived their whole life closely together and are, as they say, inseparable. […]
Monette and Mady do not just share a close relationship as sisters, they have always lived together and they have made a profession out of their image. They act, model and dance as a couple. They are true performers and the city of Paris is their stage.
Even the most basic part of their performance, dressing identically, takes effort. Mady and Monette spend a lot of time shopping for original, often vintage outfits and jewelery and it’s not always easy finding doubles when it doesn’t come from a high street store. If they ever go out dressed in different outfits, people come up to them wondering why they are arguing, asking if they are ok.
Neither Mady nor Monette have married or had children. They have long stopped celebrating their birthdays and they always eat the same kind of food in identical portions. Sometimes they don’t quite understand why I want to document their everyday life. Its an interesting challenge to make them understand how fascinated I am by this symbiotic existence that is so natural to them.”
