About this artwork

Role models are not always distant figures.
Sometimes they are the ones who walk beside you from the beginning.

I was lucky, or rather, blessed,
of growing up alongside someone who was a brother, friend, and role model all at once.
In this work I wanted to represent something very simple,
but very deep:
the feeling of walking hand in hand with someone you trust blindly.
The older man walks firmly, decisively,
And the little one doesn't need… to look where he's stepping…
just follow in their footsteps.
That is why this work is titled Big Brother.

Alfonso Silván, a Madrid-born artist with a degree in Fine Arts, specializes in acrylic portraits full of power and originality. He develops his style by combining expressive realism, vivid brushstrokes, stark contrasts, and a vibrant palette dominated by his signature Silván Red. Color in his hands is an emotional language, transforming each glance into a symbol and dreamlike experience. His works move and thrill, revealing the truth and the deepest essence of human beings; he doesn't portray faces, but souls and pure emotions.
