Shaw Jewelry invites the public to an evening celebrating two captivating exhibitions and their artists from 5 to 7 p.m. Aug. 14. The shows run through Aug. 27.
Natural Rhythms — Karen Cass
Karen Cass’ paintings reflect her profound love of nature and deep concern for the environment’s fragility and resilience. Her otherworldly landscapes, rocky shores, shimmering water reflections, vibrant plant life, and travel-inspired scenes evoke a sense of place and storytelling. Cass’ work honors the beauty of the natural world while urging viewers to appreciate and protect our planet’s precious resources.
High Tide — Thomas Mann Jewelry
Renowned New Orleans artist Thomas Mann debuts a new jewelry line, Techno-Natura, inspired by the ocean and the intersection of industry with nature. The collection blends a constructivist aesthetic with the raw beauty of coastal materials, a tribute to Mann’s love for the Maine seashore.
Biographic Drawings Meet Landscapes — Thomas Mann Paintings
Also on view are Mann’s paintings created during a sabbatical in Portugal. These works fuse abstraction with landscape, offering symbolic autobiographies that invite viewers to explore personal interpretations. His compositions weave together intimate observations, grand vistas, and layered meanings.
The opening reception for all shows is Aug. 14, and they will remain on view through Aug. 27.
