Toreyo's work has evolved in a continuous process from expressive representations heavily influenced by primitive art to a new aesthetic of visual expressionism. He achieves depth effects through a variety of textures that give an almost sculptural form. He focuses on the transformation and fusion of traditional and modern techniques, combining action paintings with a bold calligraphic style. NEW MUTATIONS are highly physical, joyful and abstract.
Vidal Toreyo paints in the style of visual expressionism. The characteristic feature is to depict the world only from a subjective perspective, radically distorting it. In this way, the artist achieves emotional effects that evoke moods or ideas.
