Rebecca Tully Fulmer is a visual artist based in Birmingham, Alabama, whose interdisciplinary practice explores the material life of images through lens-based media, collage, and fiber techniques. Working primarily with transparent and reflective materials, Fulmer transforms photographs into layered, dimensional forms that exist between image and object. Her work invites viewers into an active perceptual experience where light becomes both medium and collaborator—shifting, refracting, and revealing the image anew with each change in perspective.

Fulmer holds a BA in Interior Design from Auburn University's School of Architecture and an MFA from Lesley University Art + Design. Her recent solo exhibition, Light in Tandem, was presented at the Gadsden Museum of Art in Alabama.
