SILVIO CAPOFERRI

I am an Italian-American illustrator from New Jersey. For over a decade I have been designing graphic apparel, event/show flyers, album artwork, and more.

In 2012, while attending the School of Visual Arts in NYC, I launched my first clothing brand with a friend inspired by my local music scene in NJ. I was the sole designer. We had an online shop and sold at countless punk/hardcore shows, festivals, charity events, etc. Though the brand has since closed, the experience embedded in me a passion for graphic apparel design, branding, and a DIY ideology.

In 2019 I launched Silvio's Pizzeria, which is not a real pizzeria (sorry), but a brand inspired by Italian food, punk rock, and up-beat retro style. It focuses on original artwork, graphic apparel/accessories, and even occasionally brand collabs, music gear, and various home/hard goods. My illustrations are all done by hand the old school way, brush and ink on bristol.

I now reside in Southern California.
