Adam Fuss has most often made unique images with a simple process that completely eliminates the camera - a photogram. Dependent
upon the physical qualities of the actual object placed on light-sensitive paper and the length of its exposure to light Fuss
has created stunning abstractions and poignant compositions from such materials as babies in water, the trail of snakes across
a surface, sunflowers , rabbits and their entrails and light moving in space. Since 1999 he has worked on a series entitled "My
Ghost" an evocative reference with spiritual associations realized in such images as christening gowns, transparent and absent
the warmth of the intended wearer or columns of smoke captured during their brief existence. Many of these unique and intimate
prints are large in scale.
A resident of New York since 1982, Fuss was born in London and departed England for Australia where he first studied photography
while working as studio assistant to a commercial photographer. After arriving in New York he worked as a commercial photographer
documenting art exhibitions. He has been included in numerous solo and group exhibitions internationally and his work is in private
and public collections.
