Kylie's Room 1

Hotel, Room 26

Kylie's Room 1

For this week's weekly selfie I was inspired by Sophie Calle's Hotel, Room 26, which was made in 1983. I was surprised by Sophie Calle's hotel room series because of how odd they are. She worked as a chambermaid and took photos of different parts of people's hotel rooms. It's interesting because the photos are factual documentation but Calle can add her own interpretation of these people's lives based on the photos. I decided to take the same kind of photos of my own messy room and try to look at it as if it wasn't my own room. It's interesting all the stories you can make about a person based on their belongings and how it's set up.
