Because — Sophie Calle, Atelier EXB, 2018 / English edition

A book built on delay, where meaning precedes image. Inspired by Denis Roche’s performative slide lectures, Sophie Calle writes the reasons behind each photograph before revealing it—physically hidden within the folds of a Japanese binding. Each “because” frames the act of seeing as consequence rather than intention. Expanded with new texts and images, the book sharpens her ongoing inquiry into authorship, memory and narration, turning sequencing into a conceptual device as much as a formal one.
