Daniel Torre is a self-taught sculptor currently living and working in Mexico. Departing from a financial background, he started working with wood in 2019, inspired by nature and following his artistic intuition on different techniques and forms to represent his ideas.
His sculptures are visually modern, following simple patterns and textures such as curves and lines, which provide a sense of movement that seeks to express an idea and connect with the viewer. Daniel’s Buffalo Creek Art Center project is a massive wood sculpture titled The Artist Window.

Artist’s Interview
Having the time and space along with a fully equipped workshop helped me finish a piece that would not have been possible to make at my studio.
Being isolated and living with different artists in the same house helped me to concentrate and give my full attention not only to create a piece but to explore new projects and ideas that will help me advance my career.
During this month I not only produced a new piece but enriched myself with a group of artists that became my friends and with whom I shared my ideas and learned from all their experiences.
Steve, Lana and everyone working in Buffalo Creek created the perfect place and environment to make you feel at home while focusing on sculpting.
I can’t thank enough Steve and Lana for giving me this amazing opportunity and an experience that will never forget.”
