Fette, from The Silent March, Los Angeles, 2010.
I scanned older work, and I uploaded the shots on my site. Scroll down.
And I will also write in French.
I live in Berlin, and sometimes in Los Angeles. I make photographs, and videos. And, here.
I also flit on Twitter at times.
This is a little bit of why I am still looking.

Fette, from The Quotidian, Berlin, February 2, 2011.
Romain Gravas hired men to play dress-up as cops and protesters, I made a 30 sec film in Berlin-Friedrichshain the night of the eviction of the squat on Liebigstrasse 14, with real cops.

Fette, Paul Mpagi Sepuya, Brooklyn, 2011. More.

It’s always interesting to see how other people take an image of me. There’s a great amount of control that balances out some of the vulnerability in self-portraiture. It’s nice to be directed by someone else.

I shot the wonderful Paul for a feature on Freunde von Freunden and he graciously obliged.
I first came across Paul’s work through this series of zines entitled SHOOT which he made between 2005 and 2008. In 2006, I attended the LACE 27th Annual Benefit Art Auction where I was able to bid on this photograph Alex, 2005, which I then brought home. His work has gained such amplitude and force, it makes me happy.
Thank you for letting me roam your sweet home Paul, and thank you Timothy Hull for such a great interview.

I am absolutely thrilled to present you with the first image from this series of four postcards made in collaboration with the fabulous Melissa Gira Grant for Abe’s Penny. Please, subscribe today in order to receive them in your mailbox. Thank you Anna and Melissa.
From the press release:
New York, NY, May 2, 2012—There was a mention of a murder. Something roaming. Grant required a train. Not knowing who the characters were, she knew they would coexist in Vertigo and Mullholland Drive. Sans booked a night train from Munich to Berlin.
Grant sent text prompts to Sans, who sent back her photographs—faceless characters with tension and melancholy that alternate between two realities: black & white and color, the inside and outside, and stillness vs. motion.
Abe’s Penny met Grant late in 2011 and asked her to contribute. She requested Fette Sans to be her collaborator, a photographer Abe’s Penny editor Anna Knoebel met in 2006 while making the rounds at Miami Basel. Grant and Sans had met earlier this year in the East Village after following each other’s work online for over two years. As Sans put it, “Serendipity at its best. Meeting in person without setting up a time, but randomly bumping into one another.” Very much like you might on a train.
