Jason
Fulford | Nevada
| postcard [2007]
It’s
a road trip maybe you never took, or a place you’ve never
been, but it’s worth sending all the same. Jason Fulford’s
postcard documents moments of space and place in Nevada (we presume,
from the helpful location information on the back of the card) that
are seemingly unspectacular and unrelated, but a document nonetheless
of things we recognize—a smashed up car, a shifting brink
wall, ranch houses with big trees out front. In this piece, the
life of the card grows and changes as it is put to use, and Fulford’s
aim is for the viewer to put the card to good use. The content is
only half finished. He’s giving it to you to do the rest.

I
love opposites - especially when they exist at the same time –
like emotion & logic, aesthetics & morality, genuine &
artificial, sad & funny. Also, I love associations and the way
one picture can affect another.
