Style guides may offer recipes for glamour and elegance, but those with native chic know that true style requires originality. Yet the subjects of "Twenty Two," Los Angeles artist Korin Faught's first solo show in the city, are even more compelling for not being unique. In her series of drawings and paintings, which opens on Saturday at the Corey Helford Gallery in Culver City, Faught renders stylish young twins and couples who are dressed similarly or identically in her signature muted palette. The unnerving intimacy between her models, whose identities are visibly conjoined, makes them compelling characters whose allure is compounded by their closeness.
