About the Item: The artist is widely recognized for her richly colored encaustics, which are made of pigmented wax that is heated and manipulated directly on the surface of the wood panels. Her newest series entitled “Meditations” shine with their jewel-like tone and finish. SEFA will also exhibit selections from Pressman’s “Explorations” series, an evolution of her “Messages” works on paper. The artist’s process here includes applying letraset text by rubbing it on the surface to transfer its fragments; burning and smoking the paper and sewing through it, often with red thread. Her approach is intuitive, and her gestures in the studio manifest a translation and interpretation of the beyond.
