Rodrigo Oliva
My name is Rigo, I am an artist based in Sacramento California.
I have always had a passion for art. I have a degree in Animation and Illustration from San Jose State University. I believe art has no boundaries and brings communities together. My art ranges from animation, drawing, painting, sculptural, to digital. I work with all kinds of mediums and I am always experimenting and finding new mediums to work with. My work is a combination of surrealism mixed with the cultures I grew up with. The subject matter and mediums I work with are always evolving. My goals are to keep creating art and keep inspiring future artists.

About my traffic utility box design:
“Frida”
Original Medium: Digital paint
The design for my art box was inspired by one of my favorite artists Frida Kahlo. Frida has always been an inspirational figure to me. I also love Surrealism, it's one of my favorite styles of art. I grew up admiring Frida Kahlo, Salvador Dali, and Octavio Ocampo works of Art. I wanted the art piece to be a tribute to Frida Kahlo, an artist that has been inspiring artists and people for generations. Her story is a story of resilience. I wanted to share her story with the community.
