There’s a fascinating moment when viewing Brazilian artist Rafael Silveira’s work, where you can get lost in the multi-colored, gradient skies.
The classically styled portraits and still lives devolve into a psychedelic daydream of vibrancy and surrealism. Faces become empty space. Volcanoes erupt from 70’s style suits. And those colorful skies rain fuschia clouds.
Based in Curitiba, Brazil, Silveira’s work invites viewers into a bizarre world where reality intertwines with fantasy, challenging perceptions and evoking fascinating introspection.
For gallery settings, the frames of the paintings are as wild and evocative as the artwork itself, bringing the pieces alive.
