"Pain Body"
by Rachel Setzer
Your pain is real, it is really part of you, no one has the right to deny it or diminish it. However, just because it hurts, doesn't mean that it's in charge.
Opening reception:
Saturday, 8 March from 6-9pm
Showing through 31 March
Trabant Coffee, Laika Lounge & the Seattle Arts Coalition present:

Featuring the Happytime Apocalypse crew
Opening reception:
Thursday, 6 March
5-8pm
21+
HappyTime Apocalypse is an art collective that celebrates the balance
of dark and light, good and evil, happy and horrified. We aim to create
an artistic escape from the horrors of the world that surround us by
bringing attention to the humor and beauty within the maddening and
grotesque parts of the human experience, illuminating the opposing
forces of humanity within us all.
The HappyTime Apocalypse collective will have craft booths set up as well during the opening night Art Walk!
Trabant Coffee & Chai is happy to celebrate the official opening of its late-night alter-ego: Laika Lounge!

Less Than Three [ <3 ]
Thursday, 6 February 2014
February
is the hearty month! A collection of artists have put together works
based on two different shapes, (an anatomical heart and a graphic heart
lovingly laser crafted by Bellevue Fine Art Reproduction),
meant to showcase their experience of that whole love thing; known on
the internet as the mathematical equation "< 3" or ♥.
Featured artists:
Alexandria Sandlin, Amanda Crowley, Andrew Miller, Aubry Andersen,
Braden Duncan, Brandy Tomlin, Christine Brauch, Cody Hunemuller, Corey
Skillman, Jesse Porterfield, Kassandra Davis, Kree Arvanitas, Laurie
McClave, Rachel Setzer, Rick Strieck, Ronnie Taylor, Rose Miller, Thomas
Drake Steffans, and Vikram Madan
The snowflake show from December was so much fun that
we've decided to do another ornament exhibit for Valentine's month!
Sponsored by Braden and Rachel of the Seattle Arts Coalition, we present: "Less Than Three [ ♥ ]"
***THIS IS THE OFFICIAL CALL FOR ART***
The materials:
Laser cut hearts (provided by us, c/o Bellevue Fine Art Reproduction )
Ribbon for hanging (provided by us)
Your imagination (be creative and have fun!)
The challenge:
Create your own unique heart(s)!
(Up to 4 per artist)
There will be two shapes, an anatomical heart and a graphic heart. The
only stipulation is that you use one or both of the original heart
ornaments as the base of your creation, and that they can hang from a
ribbon on a wall so that we can display them at the 1st Thursday Art
Walk. (This doesn't mean your design has to be 1-sided or even flat;
feel free to 360 it!)
HEARTS AVAILABLE:
Tuesday, 14 January at Trabant Coffee and Chai in Pioneer Square
ART DROP OFF DATE:
On or before Wednesday, 5 February at Trabant in Pioneer Square by 6pm
SHOW OPENS:
Thursday, 6 February
Trabant has a sign up sheet for your name, contact info, and the # of
hearts you're making. When you bring your pieces in, please include
name, title, and price (if for sale; consider Trabant's 40% cut). PLEASE
PLEASE PLEASE include business cards in case people looking at your
work want to see more of it. If you don't have business cards, ask us;
we know a guy.
If you are not a Seattle local, you are still
welcome to participate! Just message one of us with your name and
address, and we will send the hearts to you! Once they're decorated,
just send them back to us by February 5th, and we'll include you in the
show!
Please post pics of your completed hearts here or send
them to Braden's email: bcduncan.art@gmail.com. Pics we receive by
January 31st will be featured on the flyer!
