Call Me examines communication as both connection and performance. Drawing on familiar visual cues associated with contact and accessibility, the work constructs a figure that feels simultaneously present and mediated—caught between visibility and expectation.
Layered imagery and repetition interrupt a straightforward reading, suggesting how identity is shaped through external demands and internal negotiation. What appears immediate is subtly controlled, revealing the tension between invitation and agency.
As with much of Van Atta’s practice, the surface becomes a site of construction and disruption—where image, gesture, and meaning shift depending on how they are seen.
