PAR ID: 416869
2017
through imitating a research institution, PAR ID: 416869 explores the twin as being a sought after study object in medical epidemiology.
as twins share DNA, they are used to map out why people get sick - if it is due to nature/nurture.
the project critically and performatively examines the medicinal community’s view of twin’s sole value as research instruments, and its possible consequences.
by reversing the objective from a general to a personal one, PAR ID: 416869 offers a different insight on twin hood.
PAR ID: 416869 was exhibited at the Swedish Twin Registry of Medical Epidemiology and Biostatistics, Karolinska Institute, where TWINS CORP.
engaged in discussions with the institution's researchers surrounding themes such as twin research and how medicine may influence the idea of twin as pathological.
