Obsesso Processo is the art (& design) studio of Lisa Wright.

Though she’s always made art, Lisa’s direction shifted when she turned her camera on the news crews covering the Columbine shooting at her high school (which took in the Columbine students after). Drawn to the edges of the scene, she watched the watchers, their presence suffocating in an already suffocating moment. Documenting them became an act of rebellion, a way to challenge their imposing gaze. That experience validated her instinct to go against the grain, question the obvious view, and continues to guide her search for new perspectives in the materials she works with.

Her practice centers curiosity. Working with everyday materials as varied as tampons, birthday candles, light, and coffee filters, she reshapes familiar things into sculptural and photographic works that reveal unexpected meanings. Some pieces are political, others are playful, but all are grounded in conceptual exploration and a process-driven approach that embraces experimentation and discovery.

Raised in Littleton, Colorado, she studied Photography and Graphic Design at the School of Visual Arts, NYC, before earning a BFA in Communication Design from Metropolitan State University of Denver, where she has taught and often speaks.
