About us
Sileō, present active of "silēre": "I am silent, noiseless, quiet, make no sound". Painting ghosts and galaxies and photographing pocket monsters and flying machines.
Sileō is a collaboration between Silvia Pedrina and Leonardo Brentan. Here you’ll find a mixture of painting and photography. Most works are created by us two together, but there are also individual works; take note, however, that since we work together and influence each other, there is a bit of both in everything we do.
