works

of

sophie calle.

calle is not only a french photographer, but also a writer, and a conceptual artist. born in 1953, she lives and works in paris. i chose to learn more about her because she is such an interesting lady. in her works, she puts herself in a situation where she and the people she meets are fictional.

she is often called a detective. her work involve daily lives of herself and people around her as if she is investigating. she is a very curious lady. one time, she meets a man at a party to venice and continues to follow him for two weeks. she names that project, suite vénitienne.

yes, it is kind of creepy, but very interesting at the same time. i like her works.they motivate me to take another look at the world around me, be curious for it, and investigate! calle tells me such mundane objects in my daily life can turn out to be the most interesting matters in the world.

thanks calle
