Artist Statement

At the age of 6, I wanted to be an astronaut.  At 9, I wanted to be Beethoven, 
and my ambitions have been growing steadily ever since from art, design, 
poetry, theater, sculpture and music performances, everyday a little 
more Silvestri.

Born in 1959, raised in Chicago, IL.  Where at the age of 7 was interested
in music and art inspired by his mother’s artistic nature and the colors and
scents of her cooking in the kitchen. His life has revolved around the arts,
performing and music, as far as he can remember, from ​drawing and designs
to music performance, contemporary composition, and theatre to songwriting,
however his real passion lies in contemporary drawing, sculpting and painting.

His formal education in art, music and design, foundation and graphic design 
gave him his start and he has spent the past 20 years exploring and refining 
his personal style through his favorite medium of painting.  He is world renown 
for his “Masks” series collected worldwide, Thomas looks to the world around 
him for inspiration and strives to deliver his take on his experiences through 
his artwork.

In his journey to discover his own personal style he looked to other well know 
artists for guidance and inspiration. One of his favorite artists Salvador Dali, 
provoked him to explore his interest in surrealism and experimental art while 
pushing the new boundaries of contemporary art.
