Jose Torres

"I studied architecture in the Universidad de Guadalajara, after which I founded the Mexico chapter of IIDA, the International Interior Design Association.

"In 1980, I set up my own ceramics workshop, which I named 'Colección José Torres.' I enjoy designing sculptures for public spaces such as hotels, shopping centers and apartment buildings.

"I continue to take courses in new material and techniques, and on creating pieces based upon a design.

"My ceramic art has been present in design and decoration exhibits in a number of Mexican capitals as well as in New York, Miami, Aspen, Chicago, San Francisco, Las Vegas and Los Angeles. I've been privileged to show my work in European venues that include Madrid, Paris, Frankfurt, Milan and London."

José Torres has won a number of awards for his original designs.
