Opening Reception at the NC Botanical Gardens
The project of photographing the Eno River that flows through Orange,
and Durham counties has been my focus for more than a decade. I have made
photographs here in all seasons, at all times of day, in most locations
along the river. The river has offered an ever-changing, constantly evolving
location for the making of photographs. The collection is a portrait of a
subject that won't sit still. An attempt to photograph an evolving,
living entity that has played a huge role in the history and
development of the areas around it. It's also a place where I find
exceptional solace and meaning. -- Holden Richards
