Entwined
is a true, almost mythic story, of twins, Down syndrome and deafness, loss and
reunion, love and endurance. With insight and humor, Joyce Wallace Scott takes us on a moving journey of self discovery as she guides
us with stark candor and revealing insights through her twin sister’s silent
world to show its far-reaching impact on her own life and the lives of others. 
Suddenly torn apart after a loving childhood, the twins are
to lead starkly differing lives, two separate journeys each passing through its
own emotional wilderness. For Joyce
it is a journey punctuated by loss and longing, a journey of relentless
searching and sorrow: for Judy, an inner strengthening to endure the silence of
interminable emptiness and neglect.
In the bleak landscape of lives unraveling through the early
chapters of Entwined,
small points of light appear, gradually coalescing into a galaxy of miracles.
As the seemingly disparate strands of the story are subtly drawn
together, they start to weave a compelling tapestry of human emotion, through
which shines the brilliant light of an extraordinary human being.
Discounted and discarded herself, Judith Scott found her inspiration in
abandoned and broken materials, wrapped and swaddled to create mysterious forms
of compelling beauty. Today her art
is featured in museums and galleries around the world.
Entwined is an exploration of loss, love and transformation.
