Sophie Calle, The Shadow, 1981

the narrative is autobiographical, as she recounts the day she was followed by a private investigator. The current lot, comprised of 22 separate parts, sees this text coupled with photographs and notes taken by the private investigator, unaware that his target had orchestrated the set-up in the first place. Calle states, “At my request, my mother went to a detective agency called ‘Duluc’. She hired them to follow me, to report my daily activities and to provide photographic evidence of my existence.”
