Camilo Villalvilla Soto
Born in Cuba 1976
Graduate of Architecture, Universidad Central de Las Villas (UCLV), Santa Clara, Cuba 1998.
"My latest works are an effect of an inescapable link between me and the environment, consequences of living in a singular Island like mine and its specific situation is what inspires my work."
Camilo's work clearly depicts the distinguished lines of Neo-Classical Cuban architecture. His colors are bold and clean, with strong texture, and make a powerful statement. He paints historically famous and well preserved buildings seen throughout Cuba.

Camilo illustrates books, newspapers, and magazines and has more than 10 to his credit. Presently he works as a graphics designer for the Province newspaper.
He has had seven solo art premieres in galleries through Cuba and has participated in more than 30 group exhibitions. He has also exhibited abroad and his pieces belong to private and public collections around the world; USA, Portugal, Germany, Greece, Italy, United Kingdom, Spain, France, Poland, Australia, Mexico, Puerto Rico, Chile, Paraguay, Barbados Island and Cuba.
He is currently a member of the Hermanos Saiz Association of Young Artists (AHS) and of the Journalist Association of Cuba (UPEC). A young artist still, his reputation continues to grow as his style becomes more unique and distinct. His training and study of architecture is clearly distinct and appreciated by his collectors.
