Sophie Calle
I chose Sophie Calle as her work makes you think and look deeper into the situation. She worked as a maid and took photos of peoples belongings. From this we can make our own judgments into what we think the person is like without knowing them. This inspires me as it shows how simples photos can have a large impact and that there is deeper meaning in every photo.
David LaChapelle
LaChapelle takes old photos and changes them into an up to date image. For example this piece is called 'Marilyn Monroe', in this he is showing how our role models have changed as time has past. He shows that nowadays she would have dyed hair, heavy make up and plastic surgery. I enjoy LaChapelle's work as he brings our everyday into perspective and shows how times have changed, in some cases for the worst.
