EDWIN SORIANO SCULPTURE
Sculptor based in New York and Arts Professor.
Born in El Salvador.
Edwin Soriano makes a scientific re-creation of the involuntary attraction to a magnetic point, which has been brought graphically to a didactic level. The purpose of some of his pieces is to create analogies with the spiritual need of prehistoric man to find himself somewhere in the universe as energy.
Sculpture techniques Edwin Soriano primarily works are stone, bronze and wood.
With more than 50 collective and 10 individual sculpture exhibitions, Edwin Soriano studied visual arts and sculpture at the National Arts Center, CENAR, El Salvador. He has also studied bronze sculpture in Japan and Barcelona, Spain.
Participated in multiple international symposiums.
He has exhibited in Spain, Japan, Guatemala, Costa Rica El Salvador, and The United States (New York, Georgia, California, and Wisconsin).
His work has been included in private collections located in Japan, Spain, France, Germany, The United States, El Salvador, and Guatemala.
Curator of various sculptural pieces.
“Soriano's work embodies the essence of ancestral identity. It presents an intriguing Leitmotif expressed in the spiritual connection between the heart of the sky and the heart of the earth. His pieces transcend the materials from which they are made; in his artistic expressions, stone ceases to be stone, wood ceases to be wood, and instead becomes the ancestral manifestation of the element it represents”.
J.R. (Mayan Priest)
“Encountering Edwin Soriano's work is likely being transported to other timelines; it invites to think and feel through knowledge systems that emerge from his deep commitment to stone and water as a means of remembrance. The echoes remain, suggesting a path to follow and influencing, in a compelling way, the will to act”.
