Most recently, he exhibited at Sofie Holm. Among his decorations in public spaces is the bronze sculpture "That's it". Sylvester Petersen's family grave at Assistants Cemetery in Copenhagen.

Leif Sylvester Petersen took his stage name Sylvester as his real name, after being mistaken for the author Leif Petersen born in 1934.

Beneath the picturesque charm lies a hotbed of mystery and intrigue: extramarital affairs, celebrity stalkers, missing police informants, care home saboteurs, rural rednecks and murderous magicians, embezzling accountants and abducted au pairs, blackmail, comp claims and custody cases, all-night stake-outs and professional hits.

Although they would never admit it.
