‘We Are Like One Artist’: These Identical Twins Are in Sync From Graffiti to Gallery

They finish each other’s sentences. They say they don’t need words to communicate. Their creativity is in sync. “We are like one artist,” says Gustavo Pandolfo. His identical twin brother Otavio nods in agreement, adding, “There is a conversation in the air flying there, but only we can listen [to] each other.”

“These guys have a way of just using their imagination to create all kinds of magical and unexpected renditions of things,” says Dr. Nancy Segal, a psychology professor at California State University Fullerton, who first encountered a mural by Osgemeos in São Paulo’s Ibirapuera Park.

As someone who studies twins, she is not surprised that the connection between Gustavo and Otavio Pandolfo is so strong.
