John Seed interviews painter Lisa Pressman on the occasion of her show Passing Through at Causey Contemporary, New York, on view through December 13, 2015.

Seed introduces the interview by noting that "Pressman is process-oriented and each image represents a kind of gradual accretion of ideas and methods that wouldn't be possible without the broad foundation of caprices and ruminations that preceded it. Her work, which is abstract but still very much inspired by the process of seeing, has a sense of visual 'rightness' that only intuition can validate."
