ERNANI SILVA
Ernani Silva was born in Rio de Janeiro, where he encountered many adversities. At the early age of 4, Ernani displayed artistic talent, but his father discouraged any involvement with the arts. He welcomed the opportunity to relocate to the United States, where he was further encouraged as an artist. Ernani is multi-lingual and well-regarded in an international audience. Silva developed a distinctive style, which reflects his Brazilian cultural influence of Native, African lineage. His creations are an amalgam of dance, rhythm, music, and color, which voice his rich, mystical heritage and history. Silva is passionately attracted to the expression and emotion of his traditional music and the spiritualism of Candomble ceremonies and rituals. Silva's palette is the alchemy of intoxicating opaque colors, as well as incorporating the use of heavy impression to create vibrant lyrical dancing figures. His work speaks a sensual language, which gives the viewer a glimpse of his intense celebrated reality, through an intoxicating palette of opaque colors and expression. He has extensive exhibition, teaching, and curatorial experience in a wide variety of venues over a period of more than 40 years. His award-winning work is on display throughout various galleries worldwide as well as donated to museums.
