General info :
Ami Sioux is a photographer and musician.
She has photographed for i-D magazine and Self Service along with many other international magazines such as Glamour Paris, Grazia France, Madame Air France, Madame Figaro, Jalouse, Self Service, Vogue Paris, The New York Times T Magazine, Wall Street Journal, Ginza Magazine, Vogue Girl Japan, a.o., as well as exhibited in galleries in Paris and Tokyo. Raised with wanderlust in her blood, Ami's youth was spent traveling across Montana, North Dakota and California and at 16 she set out on her own travels, heading to study filmmaking and sculpture in San Francisco.

Ami's path as a photographer began in the 1990s; this journey took her from San Francisco to New York onto Berlin where she lived form 2001 to 2003 and Paris, and currently she splits her time between the Central Californian coast, Paris and Tokyo. Ami's work is based on an intimacy, one that demands a certain presence of the subjects in her images. When shooting it's as if her camera dances with the subject, finding a way to reveal a hesitance or moment where the intention of each person she photographs is bared, present and alive, unveiling that elusive space between public projection and personal introspection. Her work also explores semiotics theories in her series of books that she has photographed in Paris, Tokyo and Reykjavik.

She has released four personal books; From the Road, Tokyo 35ºN, Paris 48°N, and Reykjavik 64ºN and is the founder of the Zine Nº series. As a musician she has released two full length albums: "To Take you Down" and "Stand Your Ground" and is currently working on recording her third album.

She is an alumna from San Francisco Art Institute where she earned a Bachelof Of Fine Arts degree in New Media in 1996.

Ami resides in Los Angeles, California, United States.
