Vidal Toreyo Art Statement

During the few years of his artistic search Vidal’s works evolved in a continuous process from expressive representations strongly dependent on primitive art to new aesthetics of creating images. His is a sense of depth achieved through a variety of textures yielding an almost sculptural form. At the moment, Vidal Toreyo concentrates on alternating and mixes traditional and modern techniques by combining action images with a bold calligraphic style. His matter paintings and graphics are highly physical, joyful and interpretive. Large format of matter painting goes hand in hand with easels and oil paints. In his art, he definitely stays away from smooth and flowing, staccato and rhythmic. His acrylic paintings are made of many interacting matter layers resulting in a surprising artifact.

Vidal Toreyo is working the surface of the painting by applying thick spaces so the texture of the paint can be exposed and combined with unusual materials – marker, cement, objects. The artist’s’ intention is to emphasize the essence of painting and applied materials. The techniques od matter painting and haute mate used are to strengthen the message and emotional tensions of Vidal Toreyo work.
