Ada Da Silva is a Cuban-born modernist sculptor based in Miami. Working primarily in bronze, her practice explores the human figure as a vessel for emotion, movement, and inner tension.
After a formative decade in Mexico City, where she refined her technique alongside established international artists, Da Silva developed a distinct sculptural language defined by elongated forms, suspended gestures, and a quiet balance between strength and vulnerability.
Her work merges the permanence of bronze with the fragility of human experience, capturing moments that feel both intimate and monumental.
