Studio 406D
At the BCA since 2007

Silvia's work explores humanity's existential need of filling a void. It searches for intimate connections to self and others, as it engages in conversations about joy, struggle, assimilation, change and growth.

Her latest body of work comprises of a series of large scale drawings (40 x 60 in.) on paper, inspired by the unstoppable urge her niece Maria Cristina has to make people laugh. The giant portraits also feed into the parallel realities of our constant need for attention.
