The title does not speak to a good-evil duality or a yin-yang duality, but the duality of body and spirit; that we are made of two separate parts that dwell together but are separate.
I suppose for the geeks out there it could also refer to quantum duality where a particle can be in more than one place at once. :)
Don, if you vote me down just cuz I got me a black background, I'm gonna find you! ;P

Great lighting and interesting comp but it doesn't fit (my personal definition) as Fine art. Good luck and hopefully it is just me.
ETA, again I am reviewing shots I have looked over and over and after really thinking about it I could see a modern art feel to this. So the score is going up some from me.
I'm not making this up: I had a dream a bout this photo last night. I was painting hot-pink and dayglo-lavender, & lime green on this with an airbrush. Of course I often dream in post-processing terms, but this is a first. "D
This entire week has been eerie. I've met two set of twins, read two books my friend insisted I read (starring twins) and now this lovely haunting image that reminds me of the mysterious connection of twins. Love it.
This is something of a contrived image, in my opinion. Taken at face value, it doesn't mean much to me. Looking at it for a while, I appreciate not the subject, or the forced metaphor in your title, but the shapes. There are a lot of interesting shapes to consider, and the entire canvas is carved in a curious and intriguing way by these two. But what does it mean? What duality were you trying to evoke? I don't understand you. Technically, the contrast and tones are nice, the light is good, but there is something odd about the featureless black.
