From Síntesis Series - Shadow box construction with screen-printed Plexiglas and chromed aluminum metal bars - Signed and numbered on a label affixed to the reverse

Rafael Jesus Soto's Escritura is a captivating mixed-media sculpture that uses the interplay of lines, transparency, and shadow to create a sense of movement and spatial depth. Part of the Síntesis series, the artwork consists of screen-printed Plexiglas panels, with chromed aluminum metal bars creating a layered effect that manipulates light and visual perception. The abstract lines across the panels resemble flowing calligraphy or dynamic writing, hence the title Escritura (Writing). The combination of precise geometry with optical illusions is central to Soto’s work, encouraging viewers to engage with the piece from multiple angles. As light and perspective shift, the static lines seem to vibrate or oscillate, evoking a sense of motion. Signed and numbered on a label affixed to the reverse, Escritura reflects Soto’s mastery in kinetic and optical art, where visual perception becomes an active experience.
