Becoming Sophie Calle: “Sometimes you suffer, and it offers you a boulevard of pleasure.”
French artist Sophie Calle reflects on a life and practice shaped by intimacy, absence, and a persistent urge to transform personal experience into art. Speaking from her home, Calle traces the origins of her distinctive method, which blends photography and text with autobiographical narrative and conceptual rigor. Calle describes how her domestic space becomes an extension of her emotional world, populated by symbolic objects.
