Sarajo Frieden is an artist, illustrator and designer living in Los Angeles.
He work from a studio in Los Angeles that borders Thai Town, Little Armenia and Koreatown, with Guatemalan and Salvadoran bakeries nearby. The cacophony of hand-painted signs in a variety of languages serves as both inspiration and daily reminder that the ordinary is often extraordinary and nothing is what it seems. A host of disparate vocabularies from the worlds of fine, folk and decorative art, including Persian miniatures, Shaker trance drawings, Japanese ukiyo-e, and his Hungarian great aunt’s embroidery, can be found wandering through his images. Using open ended narratives, folk tales, abstraction and the juxtaposition of discordant images, he try to give form to the human experience as he see it. His work has been exhibited in galleries in Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Diego, North Carolina, Minnesota, New York, Rome, Venice, Naples and Australia.
