From B & W Magazine, Issue 49, February/March, 2007:

MORE ON MONEY by Michael More: Big Money Invisible Gold. See "Press" link.
"(Neptune) has aquired, more remarkably, whatever it takes to make a picture that transmits what the
19th-century critic John Ruskin called 'the invisible gold,' the indefineable value that keeps a work
perpetually nourishing and instructive."


Teresa Neptune was awarded the 2005 Willard Van Dyke Memorial Grant for Photography
by the New Mexico Council on Photography for her portfolio of 10 photographs
from the series, "Wind River."

"Wind River": Neptune's photographs from the set of the documentary film, "Silent Thunder" shot on the Wind
River, Arapaho/Shoshoni Reservation in Wyoming, during five days in June of 2005
"Silent Thunder," Dir: Angelique Midthunder, 2005, funded in part by PBS & NAPT, documents the
unique method of training horses developed by Arapaho elder, Stan Addison; a quadriplegic who has
the gift of, "horse medicine." Please visit www.midthunder.com.

Artists Statement



As an encroaching high-tech world threatens to engulf our senses at every turn the elegant
simplicity of black and white imagery gives us a necessary reprieve, a moment
of refuge. The lure of simplicity itself compels me to capture simple moments; ironies,
juxtapositions, shadow and light that exist for one moment and are gone forever.

As these moments are preserved in the images we are given a second chance to
glimpse the fleeting relationships that constantly shift and rearrange to make up the
next moment and the next. These photographs invite us to pause and become aware
of the miraculous beauty that surrounds us. Beauty as simple, complex and transient
as life itself.
