Description"Fulford is the co-author, with Tamara Shopsin, of a photobook for children titled This Equals That (2014). His print, South of Chennai (2001), comes from this project, in which the triangular shape of the shark’s mouth is the focus of a playful pairing of images. Through pictures and storytelling, Fulford toys with the language of photography and the meaning of images." (SOURCE: Light Work, Syracuse, NY)
