Zen 3 Photography Exhibit
1 May, 2008
Location: Teaism Dupont Circle, 2009 R Street NW (corner of R St and Conn. Ave.)
"Zen 3" is a group of three photographers - Min Enghauser, Gina Eppolito and Jo Ann Tooley who embrace the concepts of Zen in their work. They describe themselves as photographers in search of simplicity, truth and good light. Although their styles and choices of subject matter are decidedly different from one another, it's clear that they are kindred spirits. Their images all reflect a sense of solitude, spirituality and self awareness. Enghauser's images were shot throughout the U.S., Eppolito's in Southeast Asia and Tooley's in West Virginia.
