Creators meets the Kaplan Twins, two ambitious young LA transplants looking to make it at the intersection of art and celebrity. Host Meryl Coker spends a day with the twins, learning about two of their signature works: The Boy Toys series of toys they pose with nude and sell through their Instagram account, and their paintings of celebrity sex tape scandals. We also meet Matty Mo, the girls' business partner and former Google exec turned art impresario, who is nurturing the Kaplan's career through his incubator and marketing their appeal for maximum profitability. Through it all, the girls' entrepreneurial and playful approach to sexuality and pop art begs the question of what exactly art is, and who has the right to call themselves an artist.
