Giant Robot is proud to host Lost in the Woods, a joint art show featuring new works by Nathan Jurevicius and Andrea Kang.

Nathan Jurevicius is an Australian artist working in a variety of media. His most acclaimed project to date is Scarygirl. The brand since its creation in 2001 has developed an underground following of fans throughout the globe. The property is now in active script and visual development for an animated feature film. Nathan has also completed his first graphic novel and multi-award winning online game based on Scarygirl.

Andrea Kang is a freelance artist living and working in Providence, RI. She graduated from the Rhode Island School of Design with a BFA in Industrial Design in 2004 and a Masters in Art + Design Education in 2005. Since then she's taught, been a toy designer, participated in gallery shows across the U.S., and has dedicated her time to illustration and toy design work.

For Lost in the Woods, the artists will be creating medium- to small-sized works depicting children and animals finding their way through a dream-like forest, in muted colors on variety of media. Their collaborative pieces will combine ink, acrylic paint, and cut paper. For her personal work, Andrea is using ink on cut paper, while Jurevicius is using pens and watercolors. Each will also debut two new silkscreens at the show (including a skate deck design) as well as a limited-edition giclee print. There will be new plush owlets, too.

Giant Robot was born as a Los Angeles-based magazine about Asian, Asian-American, and new hybrid culture in 1994, but has evolved into a full-service pop culture provider with shops and galleries in Los Angeles, San Francisco, and New York City, as well as an online equivalent. A reception for Jurevicius and Kang will be held from 6:30 to 10:00 on Saturday, May 22.
