Ariko Inaoka

A few weeks ago I found this first image and traced its roots back to photographer Ariko Inaoka. With this project, Ariko will travel to Iceland every year to photograph eleven year old identical twins Erna and Hrefna. The project will continue until the girls are 16. Ariko is interested in the relationship between identical twins and the period between childhood and adolescence. I focused on the subject of adolescence through photography quite a bit during college so these images really struck a chord with me. I love the combination of innocence and eeriness.
