About his set design for the Margaret Jenkins Dance Company production of Breathe Normally, Anna Kisselgoff of the New York Times described his work as a fabulous set of wood-paneled walls ... that evokes Frank Lloyd Wright in his Japanese mood. Recent work includes Inbetween, an acclaimed video installation / live theatrical performance created in conjunction with former Kronos Quartet cellist Joan Jeanrenaud. "Tom's most recent book Before Zero is a stunning collection of Polaroids taken over the course of 20 years, mostly with an SX-70 camera. Housed in a custom-made square portfolio envelope which is beautifully printed with images from those Polaroids and secured in a fold-out cover with an elegant Japanese binding, the full-bleed color images capture fragments of representations of the world around us. Images from advertisments, nature programs, movies, news and art history follow each other with no verbal narration in a stream of culturally literate free association. No doubt about our image nation which can free associate anything these days and make heads and tails of all of that which we see. This is a gourgeous bookwork, beautifally conceived, exquisitley executed, and so wonderful in the hand".
