Silveira cites influences ranging from German Expressionism to Robert Rodriguez’s films, demonstrating a broad appreciation for artistic experimentation and narrative innovation. Furthermore, he draws inspiration from surrealist artists like Magritte and Salvador Dalí, exploring dreamlike landscapes and paradoxical juxtapositions that challenge conventional perceptions of reality.
