"Wuilfredo Soto works have the common denominator of a colorful palette. There is an inherent frame to the work which is the basis of the composition of his work. However, while respecting the initial mesh protruding parts that framework for consistency of matter and the hue of the same, which give three-dimensionality to the proposal. These stains removed the element stiffness and gaze stops at an accident caused by the artist. They glide through the organizing element to break the severity and surprise the viewer. A gesture that enriches the work. In other parts, the structures are suggested. There you play with colors similar to the background elements to achieve depth and three-dimensionality.
Soto, which is basically an urban self, comes from a technological world. Scheduled mind that takes you to a search for order against chaos. No color but not strident. There is a deliberate organization of hues that creates unlimited sensations of a preconceived method but, oddly contradictory release of matter and pigments".
