Second Place
by Jody Fausett
Released September 2007.
Jody Fausett’s images brim with dark whimsy. They play with the seemingly impermeable division between life and death.
ISBN: 978-0-9716702-2-8 Published by GHava{Press}
“Like advertisements for a place you might not want to visit, Jody Fausett’s photographs sizzle with inchoate menace. Fragility and a whiff of violence collide in a body of work centered on Fausett’s kin and the vacant-eyed critters who attest to the family’s favorite avocation of taxidermy”
— Felicia Feaster, Creative Loafing
