Oksana Badrak and Miles Thompson at Roq la Rue, Seattle

Opening night: Friday December 9th 6-10 pm

Oksana Badrak

Russian born Oksana Badrak’s work is highlighted by an enigmatic perfection.
With its dreamy surrealism and incredible detail, Oksana Badrak's work exists in a
dimension of her own. Presenting fantastical visual experiences made from
amalgamations of graphic fiction and
tightly rendered reality. Inspired by a range of experiences from everything
from Asian supermarkes to the Southern California desert, her work creates a

beckoning landscape…a place where pop-culture icons and images from an organic world seemingly get along

together, though the space between
them is filled with friction.

"Birding"

"Owl"

Combining disparate elements
in her work, both in the use of
imagery (such as wildlife and Victorian parlors) as well as
technique (painted elements
on digital work) Oksana has
attracted attention from both
the graphic art scene as well
as admiration from high art
academia.

"Patagonia"


	"August" "July"		Miles Thompson (Los Angeles) creates idealistic worlds reminiscent of the 50’s –60’s quest for exotica (such as the emergence of tiki bars) as well as the general public’s fascination with the bohemian world of jazz and beatniks. His work is evocative of artists such as Jim Flora, yet have an added modern lo fi pop quirkiness. His new series is focusing on the idea of the Calendar Girl pin up- still prevalent in our culture today. Miles’ retro environments create scenes that are technically exciting to look at as well as shamelessly fun. "Valentine"
