Q.

Do you remember the first piece you created which you felt was a "work of art," and what was it?

A.

We remember the first drawing we did together very well, but at that time we did not imagine there would be more. We did not think we would be artists. Today we see our art as just the product of the two of us. We simply draw the things we think we should take more time to look at. How do you move past a creative block when you run out of ideas? That is the advantage of working together as a team. We are never at the same pace, so there is always one to lead the other towards new ideas.

Q.

How would you define the role social media plays in art? Art making? Art promoting?

A.

Social networks are a good communication tool, and for an artist it is difficult to connect without it today. It makes it much easier! We mainly use Instagram. Our posts are quite spontaneous. We try not to overthink the impact of each image. Instead we try to approach it as a good way to show our work and have fun.

Q.

Are there one or two books that have had a dramatic impact on your thinking?

A.

Bonjour Tristesse by Françoise Sagan and An Attempt at Exhausting a Place in Paris by George Perec.

Q.

Other than the genre you work in, what other types of art do you most enjoy?

A.

We have been practicing photography for a long time. For now it's a practice we keep to ourselves. It helps us a lot in our creative process. We also started doing painting research. It's great for us to get away from drawing from time to time. And to move towards more spontaneous techniques.

Q.

Who are some of the artists working today that you look to for inspiration or admire?

A.

We really like the work of Belgian painter, Luc Tuymans. We also very much admire French artist Claire Tabouret's paintings.
