Reading about Sophie Calle, she strikes me as very
strange but a very straight-forward person. Some of her works intrude upon
others such as “The Hotel, Room 47 (1981)”. Sophie rummages through another
person’s belongings and indiscriminately takes photographs of it like a
detective unbeknownst to the guest. In a way, these photographs express herself
as someone who takes interest in another person’s private side which is pretty
much voyeurism. My inspired selfie are photographs of my brother’s bedroom. I
was actually cautious in what I photographed for obvious reasons. It felt
strange and awkward doing this and I couldn’t really imagine what it would’ve
been like for Sophie to do these things normally.
