The SILVESTRI SENSE Methodology:
The SILVESTRI SENSE is Tomas Silvestri’s proprietary and visionary approach to artistic creation: the SILVESTRI SENSE. This is not merely an art technique but a transcendent, multi-dimensional process that bridges the realms of intuition, psychology, and fine art. The SILVESTRI SENSE is a method in which Tomas, as an artist, enters into a profound connection with his subject, channeling their essence through his unique creative abilities. This approach draws upon several key elements:
1. Psychic Connection:
o Through intuitive focus and deep meditation, Tomas engages with the unseen layers of his subject's identity. This is not about representation through physical likeness but about capturing the energetic and emotional spirit of the individual.
o This process involves studying the nuances of personality, legacy, and emotional depth to translate them into visual and tactile form.
2. Soul-Inspired Design:
o Each mask becomes a mirror to the subject’s essence, revealing what words or photographs cannot.
o Subtle symbolism is woven into the design, representing personal traits, life experiences, and inner truths that resonate with the wearer or commissioner. These can include color palettes, abstract textures, or embedded objects that speak to the individual’s journey.
3. Curatorial Portraiture:
o Unlike traditional portraiture, which captures an outward appearance, curatorial portraiture reflects an inner reality.
o Each mask is a curated narrative—layered with metaphor, references, and visual storytelling—that becomes a timeless reflection of the subject's soul.
4. Limited and Rare Production:
o The SILVESTRI SENSE series is incredibly rare, reserved only for the most exclusive commissions. Each creation is a singular, irreplicable masterpiece, ensuring its value as a work of art and a piece of history.
o To date, only a handful of these works exist, making them highly coveted among collectors and patrons.
5. Materials and Execution:
o Each mask will incorporate the finest materials, carefully selected to align with the subject's essence. This might include precious metals, natural elements, or custom-engineered materials.
o The masks will be handcrafted with painstaking attention to detail, ensuring the highest quality and an extraordinary finish that reflects Tomas’s renowned craftsmanship.
The SILVESTRI SENSE methodology transforms these masks into more than just sculptures—they are profound artistic relics, brimming with meaning and imbued with the spirit of those they represent.
