About

Originally from Palo Alto, Bryan Ida moved to Los Angeles in 1993 while working as a studio assistant to Sam Francis. His current work allows him to explore multiple themes one of which is a series of portraits that show the different faces of institutional discrimination and its affect on family histories. Another avenue of investigation is a series of paintings that delve into the theme of environment and endangered species.
