BIO

Bruce Fayman is a photo based digital artist whose work focuses on the complex relationship between plants labeled as “weeds” and the environments they inhabit. The works were originally shot in a variety of states across the U.S.

Bruce Fayman was born and raised in San Diego, California. Many of Bruce’s early creative years were spent in the world of music.  A drummer and vocalist, Bruce wrote songs, produced records, and performed with various bands in the Southern California area. Playing alongside his brother, Corey L. Fayman. (https://www.coreylynnfayman.com) their band, Bad Dog (https://music.apple.com/us/album/what-you-need-single-version/828783216?i=828783217), enjoyed considerable local success in San Diego.

Having grown up in a household filled with abstract art, Bruce found his voice in the visual arts through the digital medium where he seeks to blend the lines between photography and other 2D media.  His subject matter sprang from his fascination with invasive plants and their effect on the environments they inhabit.

His father, Lynn G. Fayman (https://mopa.org/exhibition/fayman/), was a well-known abstract photographer whose work included hand-tinted Kodak Flexichrome, is a key influence on Bruce’s work.

His work has been exhibited in California and Colorado galleries and cafes as well as online exhibitions including:

Sanchez Art Group, Pacifica, CA; Outnumbered Gallery, Littleton, CO; The Artist’s Gallery, Cañon City, CO; Circle 4 Gallery, Online; Bread and Cie, San Diego, CA; The Jacobs Family Gallery, La Jolla, CA; Mission Cafe, San Diego, CA; The Athenaeum Juried Show, La Jolla,CA.
