Fuss has embraced a range of historical and contemporary photographic techniques to capture a broad set of emotion-laden subject matter.
Art critics often describe the artist's work as speaking to the ephemerality of a moment in time and life itself.
Fuss's images have depicted babies, water droplets, christening dresses, moving light, snakes, sunflowers, rabbit entrails, and human skulls.
