Javier Silva Pérez

Javier Silva Pérez is an artist born in 1991 in San Luis Potosí, Mexico. He currently lives and works in Mexico City. He studied photography at the International Center of Photography in New York and cinematography at the Center for Design, Film and TV. Javier’s photography reflects the relationship between his inner thoughts and his inner self; within this relationship lies the outside world. By documenting this external world that surrounds him, he “saves” that moment and/or memory. This is especially true when he feels the need to capture it, even if that moment becomes merely a memory of the image he captured. The purpose of his photography is to discover who is inside looking at the outside world. It has become a perpetual documentation of daily life over the years. He works with what life gives him and with what he has learned along the way.
