The results are a beguiling narrative governed by composition and chance – a kind of metaphysical slot machine that scours memory and returns it two frames at a time, guided by intuition.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFulford’s pairings bounce freely across scale, place, and chronology: the smallest coiled leaf set against a vast vista, a silhouetted hand floating across a bedspread, the scrawled markings of civilisation laid directly over landscape until each image reads like a palimpsest, something continuously written upon, older writing always surfacing beneath the new. Dry humour drifts in and out, formal echoes accumulate, and the slippery relationship between any single picture and the story collapses inside square frames abundant with detail and charged with the subliminal.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn 1942, Barbara Morgan wrote that “modern life is photomontage,” two unrelated things sharing one instant the way thought and feeling already do. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eFrozen Features\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e takes her at her word, sidestepping montage’s weight as historical technique in favour of something closer to play, an irresistible, intuitive mix that goes, boldly and without hesitation, straight to the heart.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eJason Fulford (b. 1973, USA) is a photographer, publisher, and educator. A Guggenheim Fellow and co-founder of J\u0026amp;L Books, he centres his practice on the meanings images generate in sequence, transforming the commonplace into open, poetic metaphor.

Fulford has published more than a dozen books, including \u003cem\u003eThe Mushroom Collector\u003c\/em\u003e (The Soon Institute, 2010), \u003cem\u003ePicture Summer on Kodak Film\u003c\/em\u003e (MACK, 2020), \u003cem\u003eThe Heart is a Sandwich\u003c\/em\u003e (MACK, 2023) and \u003cem\u003eLots Of Lots\u003c\/em\u003e (MACK, 2024), among many others.
