A flash of light, an imprint on paper: Adam Fuss

"Adam Fuss has made pictures of snakes and smoke; butterflies, birds, and rabbits; infants and infants' dresses; leaves, tendrils, flowers, and entire plants. These pictures are photographic but not photographs. They are photograms: images produced by placing an object on a chemically treated sheet of paper and exposing it to light. Though some details are lost, the ones we do see are not merely accurate. They are accurate of necessity, for the artist's flash of light leaves a direct imprint on the paper. Nothing intervenes between the object and its image, so we accept without question whatever his photograms tell us about the shape of a petal or the curve of a stem. Among Fuss's most frequent subjects is water—or, to be more precise, water's fluidity." —Carter Ratcliff, Adam Fuss: Water
