DEFSTALKR's 'Jake Fried' Collection

Using ink and white-out to generate hallucinatory vistas, Jake Fried repeatedly modifies and records his images to create mind-bending animations. Fried's films have been exhibited at the Tate Modern and Sundance Film Festival, and his work has been commissioned by Adult Swim, Netflix, and numerous art galleries around the world.

"Goodnight Moon" by Jake Fried - 30 Editions

Hand-drawn animation with ink and white-out on paper. 5 second loop. Sound design by the artist.

Uniquely defying the trappings of any genre, Fried’s optical illusions transmit an air of primordial longing, with the artist’s own audio compositions syncopating the flow. A multidisciplinary maker who shifted the course of animation with his uniquely rhythmic shorts, Fried’s looping animations fuse timeless nirvana with digital discord - ultimately revealing the singularity between user and technology.
