PAIMAN
Contact on X: @StudioPaiman
ADVISOR, PFPdate.ape
Digital Artist • Curator • Collector
“I believe art like beauty is in the eye of the beholder.”
San Francisco based NFT artist Paiman has been studying,
teaching and a creative director in the field of Multimedia,
High Tech and Advertising for over 25 years. From an early
age, he was exposed to the arts that stimulated him to
explore and express his passion for painting, music and writing.
Paiman’s abstract paintings are an intersection of digital
and traditional art created through his unique vision. He finds
small openings of inspiration in this busy life by reconnecting
with nature, movement, and sound. Simple found objects,
shapes, & colors that go unnoticed in everyday life are
a source of his creative process.
One of his passions is to inspire young minds to tap
into their creative wells. Paiman finds joy in discovering and
elevating both emerging and well-established artists, making sure
the Web3 movement embraces diversity and inclusivity.
Since February 2021 Paiman has been active in the NFT
movement as an artist, advisor, collector, and curator
building community and spotlighting other artists. He is one
of the founding members of SearchLight that curated
the first exhibition of over 70 talented international artists
at the BitCoin Conference Miami June, 2021.
Selected Exhibitions and Curations:
● BitCoin Conference Miami 2021 ● NFT Art Week Beijing 2021
