Everything that Matters

By Visual Storyteller DaSilva

Based out of Nigeria, visual storyteller + artist DaSilva captures the essence of black love through her series, Everything that Matters. Conceptually driven, the series captures a brief moment in time of two people in love.  Selecting a specific time of day, a simple scenery, and soft brown colors, DaSilva captures the layers of the human experience and connection.

β€œThrough visuals, I capture the layers of culture, identity, and the human experience, transforming everyday moments into something profound. For me, storytelling is more than just capturing an imageβ€”it’s about creating a connection. I’m driven by the desire to make people feel something, to spark a quiet reflection or a conversation. My work is about more than just aesthetics; it’s about making stories tangible, about visuals that linger in the heart and mind long after they’ve been seen.”
