"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


From sewing tree shaped pillows to overturning marble tables in fancy night clubs, from romantic comedies to schlocky slasher films, Jody Fausett is a renaissance man...sort of. His arts and skills are a little more unpredictable then the common definition attributed to such a person. Where as one fitting the "classical" definition might teach you a thing or two about fine wines and seamlessly segue into the history of italian opera, Jody might educate you on the genius of Paul Verhoeven's Showgirls after catching a possum with his bare hands.
“I have known Jody Fausett for almost a decade now and he is easily one the most interesting characters I have ever met. Unassuming at first glance, it is quickly apparent that there is something slightly askew to Jody in both appearance and personality. With a slightly messed up collar, ever changing facial hair, or his tendency to add the word "hole" to other words to create new "uncomfortable" words, he is constantly pushing the limits of what is acceptable to the norm.This "other-ness" that is slightly above radar in real life becomes fully amplified in his photographs, yet never becomes deafening.”
