Los Feliz artist Vanessa Prager has been exhibited at the Robert Berman Gallery, Gallery 1988 and the Santa Monica Museum of Art. Her series, Hunting and Gaming, explores the "nature of sinister play." Prager paints "starkly-lit scenes of surrealistic moments in daily life; untangling holiday decorations, playing with old toys, driving or chatting. But her odd theatrical arrangements suggest something creepy going on behind the innocent façade."
