Daughter of a physician father
and a Spanish Literature teacher mother, Silvia grew up in a home where science and
art were always present. She spent her childhood in a
small town in the province of Santa Fe in Argentina and completed her University
studies in the city of Córdoba, Argentina where she graduated as a physician
from the Catholic University of Cordoba, specializing in internal medicine.
From a very young age she has had
a strong vocation for different artistic expressions, which over the years were
developed through courses, workshops and seminars, although drawing, painting,
photography and fashion design have always been her favorites.
Her passion for art and her
profession as a physician have coexisted in her life for many years in an
enriching inter-relationship.
Her mother was very important in
encouraging her to cultivate a taste for literature, theater, dance and the
plastic arts. The artist remembers her mother as a very cultured woman with
great sensitivity who made a valuable contribution to her life. From her father
she inherited a taste for traveling and exploring new worlds. Discovering new
places is an important inspiration in her artistic work.
