“Rainy Silvestre was born in Matanzas, Cuba in 1975. He moved to Miami, FL in 1998. Silvestre began his photographic journey as a self taught photographer, but has since graduated from New York Institute of Photography.

His photography is a compendium of life and a direct relationship to his environment. Silvestre feels a bond between objects, spaces and human emotions is key to his craft. Attempting to show this connection is his main goal as an artist.

Silvestre has been published by BEX Magazine (Argentina), Full Frame (Cuba), Revista El Estornudo (Cuba-Spain) and was featured by the site ARTISTNATOR .
