Franklin Silva

Franklin is a Brazilian artist. In his work, he explores the relationship of nature, humans, society, and issues that are present in everyday life, exploring how each of them is responsible for the other and how they play a great influence in each other's existence through disturbances and fragmentations.


Franklin started to draw when he was 11 years old. When he first started to explore his talents, he put particular emphasis on the surrealist movement. From an early age, he observed nature and its peculiarities. Over time, he tried to utilize his art in a way to understand and explore tiredness and human emotions. He graduated from Faculdades Metropolitanas Unidas with a degree in Visual Arts. In his art he uses charcoal, ink, oil, woodcut/linoleum gravure, and digital art.

Franklin is currently exploring pieces related to the LGBT community with his series called RESPECT.
Working with illustrations for children's books.
He dedicates his online broadcasts to showcasing his creative processes and implementing monthly art challenges that are determined by the community.


Franklin worked at Sesc São Paulo as an art instructor and resident artist, where he explored and developed a diverse array of art-related activities to engage the community. He created string art workshops for children and teens where he introduced a conversation between woodcutting/ linoleogravure and drawing with various tools to highlight string art. Franklin created the installation 'Lines and Shapes' recently featured at Sesc in 2018. His work was shown at the Municipal Theater of São Paulo, Itu's Art Center and the Santana de Parnaiba Museum, among others.
