About the Artist: Jorge Torres:

​Jorge Torres is a master woodcarver based in Puerto Ayora, Galápagos. He is widely recognized for his commitment to conservation, often utilizing Cuban Cedar—an invasive species on the islands—to create high-end naturalist sculptures. His work is characterized by its fluid, modernist lines and a deep respect for the anatomical accuracy of the Galápagos wildlife. Owning a signed Torres piece is considered a hallmark of authentic Ecuadorian folk art. 

This is a perfect addition to a marine life collection, a unique memento for someone who has visited the islands, or a thoughtful gift for lovers of folk art and wildlife.
