About the Item

Held Together embodies Lisa Pressman’s long investigation into how memory lives within the body, surface, and time. This sculptural mixed media work is both painting and object—built through layers of wax, pigment, and mark-making that hold traces of gesture like archaeological fragments. Its organic form feels unearthed rather than constructed, evoking the way memories surface, fade, and transform. Pressman’s signature use of translucency and opacity creates a poetic tension between what is revealed and concealed. Unlike traditional wall pieces, this work physically projects into space, blurring boundary and edge, past and present. Intimate yet powerful, it invites close looking and emotional resonance—each layer a reminder that memory is not fixed, but alive, shifting, and deeply human.

SIGNED ON BACK. Lisa Pressman’s Shape of Memory series transforms cardboard, thread, smoke, and Letraset into evocative wall-mounted works that recall ancient relics or worn book covers. Each shaped panel floats about an inch off the wall, often casting glowing, colored shadows from painted backs that shift with the light. Stitched seams and weathered surfaces suggest scars, resilience, and the passage of time, resonating as personal artifacts of memory and healing. Known for her abstract paintings in oil, encaustic, and mixed media, Pressman’s oeuvre consistently explores impermanence and transformation. With their sculptural presence and luminous effects, these intimate objects blur painting...

Untitled CA245, Organic Wall-Mounted Ceramic Sculpture with Glossy Earth Tones

By Christopher Adams

Located in New York, NY

Ceramic wall sculpture, organic form, modern decorative art. This unique wall-mounted ceramic piece features an intricate arrangement of hand-formed, petal-like elements that radiate in a starburst or botanical-inspired composition. Finished in a glossy, subtly crackled glaze with earthy tones of gray, taupe, and warm brown, the sculpture adds depth and natural elegance to any interior. Its dynamic form casts gentle shadows, enhancing the sense of movement and dimension.

Ready to hang, it works beautifully as a standalone piece or as part of a larger wall...
