Zen Sekizawa is a Los Angeles-based photographer, director, and multidisciplinary artist whose work drifts between the documentary and the surreal. A second-generation Angeleno and fourth-generation Japanese American, her practice navigates the intersections of art, politics, and community care—transforming everyday moments into something uncanny and poetic.

Her work spans editorial, fine art, film, and collaborative design, including the fine art book You and I See Why (Hesse Press), the furniture collective Mano Ya, and visual creative direction for chef Niki Nakayama of the Michelin-starred n/naka.

Zen’s commercial and editorial clients include Apple, Cadillac, Corona, Elle Magazine, Facebook, Google, The Hammer Museum, IBM, Jaguar, Jimmy Choo, the Los Angeles Philharmonic, Modelo Especial, Microsoft, MTV, Mute Records, Netflix, The New Yorker, Nike, Puma, Reebok, Samsung, Sephora, Sonos, Sony, T-Mobile, Target, Vans, Vogue, The Wall Street Journal, and Xbox.

She is currently in production on her first feature-length documentary—a layered portrait of The Atomic Cafe, her family’s legendary punk-era haunt in downtown L.A.—tracing the reverberations of archive, memory, and lived experience. She is also an active organizer with J-Town Action and Solidarity, working in collaboration with community groups such as We the Unhoused and Chinatown Community for Equitable Development.
