"Sometimes if you see something so completely unremarkable, it’s heartbreaking. I don’t know why. Sometimes if you see something so totally ridiculous and straightforward, it’s also heartbreaking. It gives you this weird feeling where your eyes swell up and you can’t decide whether to laugh or cry."
-Jason Fulford, 2005

Jason Fulford has been depicting "the simultaneous feeling of sad and funny" throughout his career. Born in Atlanta, GA, and now living in Scranton, PA, Fulford has a BA from Pratt Institute in New York. His work has been exhibited in New York, Seattle, Copenhagen, Budapest, Atlanta and Kansas City, and has been published in The New York Times Magazine, Harper's, Life, Newsweek, Suddeutche Zeitung, among many more. His photographs have also graced the covers of books published by virtually every major publishing house - which is entirely fitting, as Fulford is co-founder of a book imprint himself (J&L Books, Inc., established 2001). A graphic designer and freelance commercial photographer as well as an artist, Fulford is the author of three books, the new Raising Frogs for $ $ $, published by The Ice Plant, following Sunbird (2000) and Crushed (2003, now available).
