Castor and Pollux, the mortal and immortal twins of Greek mythology, live half their lives on earth, half in the Underworld of the dead. They personify the riddle of duality: the ineffable interdependence of past and present, intellect and intuition, of the tangible and intangible.
The piece Castor and Pollux explores this mystery.
