History

Canadian artists, Peggy & Karen Ngan are Vancouver-based artists, who used the mediums of drawing and video to explore their dynamic and relationship as identical twin sisters and the ways that this might be perceived by the public.

During their Breathe residency at the Centre, the artists documented each other's daily experiences as they interact with their surroundings in Manchester. With different mediums, the artists aimed to invite audiences to question, perceive, and describe the relationship between the pieces produced by the artists.

The results of their work was shown in an open studio between 3rd -6th May.
