Sidival
Fila
Born in 1962 in the state of Parana, Brazil
Lives and works in Rome, Italy

Sidival Fila, Franciscan friar minor, artist and President of the philanthropic foundation that carries his name, roots his artistic research on disused materials, mostly fabrics, including linen, cotton, silk, hemp, brocade, and other used materials. His idea is to free the object from its “material” condition and give it the possibility to express itself.
