[7] After earning a BA in the history of art from Harvard College, Soriano studied at the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture.
While his earliest works seemed light-hearted and reminiscent of children's toys, his later sculptures became more “vexing,” to cite a critic, suggestive of industrial tools with an indeterminate purpose.
[9][10] In the mid-2000s, during a six-month residency at the Atelier Calder in Saché, in Indre-et-Loire in France, he started making wall installations using aluminium tubing, steel cable, and spray paint.
[16] More recently, according to a museum press release, Soriano has been working on a long-term project that "documents the rapidly changing natural environment of the High North, specifically snow, glaciers, and icebergs.
"[17] In 2022 and 2023, one work in this project, a 28-foot-long wall drawing titled Ilulissat, Disko Bugt, a reference to the location in Greenland where the artist used "an almost scientific process of observation and documentation" to capture to impermanence of icebergs, was installed and exhibited the Portland Museum of Art in Maine, the Reykjavik Art Museum in Iceland, and the Bildmuseet in Sweden.
