In collaboration with Arena Stage at the Mead Center for American Theater, Yordan Silvera partnered with fellow artist Just-Swamp to bring to life When Women Speak, Tyrants Tremble—a powerful multimedia project celebrating the courage of five Cuban women who have bravely used their voices to challenge oppression.
Artistic Video Production: Yordan co-directed and crafted a captivating video that combined live-action elements with storytelling to spotlight the women’s inspiring journeys.
Illustration and Animation: Original illustrations and animations added depth and emotion to the narrative, visualizing the struggles and triumphs of these women in a unique and impactful way.
Environmental Signage: A series of immersive signage installations complemented the video, transforming the space into a powerful storytelling environment that resonated deeply with audiences.
Multimedia Synergy: The integration of video, illustration, animation, and environmental design created a cohesive and engaging experience that emphasized the transformative power of art in advocating for social justice.
This project exemplifies Yordan Silvera’s ability to blend multiple creative disciplines into a unified vision, using his artistic expertise to amplify voices and inspire meaningful change.
