My name is César Torres, and Ceramics has always been a essential part of my life since my first contact with clay at the age of 7, and I have been always more concerned about learning than showing my pieces.
After several years learning the most important techinques, I started my professional carreer as a mathematician, first in the stock exchange market and afterwards as a technical consultant in a software company, but always working at my workshop, learning and investigating .
Now I am facing the new challenge of becaming a professional potter .
