About.

  Dominique Silva(PAPERBAG) is a modern artist from the Washington D.C. area currently traveling the nation, capturing and creating visuals from the inspiration he finds. From photography and paintings to video and design, PAPERBAG explores every aspect of visual art. Art is a key form of expressing yourself and being creative and he believes in doing that in any way possible, using whatever medium he feels necessary. PAPERBAG's goal is to express his truths through art and create in every way he possibly can. To him, limitations do not exist in the world of art. 

 

Artist Statement.

I make art to help people look at life as a whole and not from an individual perspective. I paint paper bags over the faces of the people in my works to remind people its not about the one person alone but the statement behind each piece and how these topics affect all of us.
