"Thomas Mann is a visual magician, poet, and social commentator. His
jewelry and sculpture convey a voyage through an intriguing world
of possibilities.", writes Michael Monroe, Executive Director of the
Bellevue Arts Museum in the foreword to this magnificent book. As
a tribute to the tragedy of Hurricane Katrina Mann organized this
exhibition featuring 20 assemblages. He has incorporated debris from
the storm into poignant and compelling narratives.
