Sophie Calle was asked by a filmmaker to create works of art inspired by a fictional character, and photographed them as meals. Each meal was colour-coordinated, and looked very appetising, even though the contents were questionable.
Her series has inspired me through the use of colour and layout when photographing still life and photographing a subject from above. On Sophie Calle's work, you can see she has lit the subject from two sides, especially evident on Saturday's menu whereby there are two shadows on the drink. This is something to bare in mind when photographing my series of work.
