August 19, 2004

When: Thursday, August 19, 6pm
Where: Museum of Contemporary Photography

Chicago plastic surgeon David Teplica has been photographing and carrying out scientific research on twins for over ten years. More precisely he examines similarities in secondary skin conditions and has observed and created over 10,000 photographs of phenomena including twelve year old twin girls whose acne has erupted in exactly the same spot on the nose. Teplica says “its incredible that one egg and one sperm could determine that.”
