Neno Catania

Woodwork from Vancouver

My passion is to create wood-art that is both functional and decorative from this beautiful natural material.

Neno Catania

Neno Catania is a resident of Burnaby BC, resides in the Still Creek area. Working the medium of wood has been a part of his everyday life since the early 1980’s. At first, he was employed as a hardwood floor tradesman. Here, he developed his wood working skills as an apprentice, worked his way up to journeyman. It was in 1994, when he purchased his first lathe wanting to learn the craft of wood turning. In the beginning he was self-taught, reading magazines, books and viewing how- to videos from the public library. Neno joined the Greater Vancouver Woodturners Guild at their first club meet in 1999, was a member for 10 years. His wood turning skills accelerated through hands on demos, watching techniques during the course of invited demonstrators. He was an instructor at The Joint Woodwork School in Vancouver teaching wood turning courses from beginner to advance class.

Supporting Artists, Supporting Community

Circle Craft is more than a gallery or a shop. We're a co-operative, owned and run by the artists who make up our membership. That means when you buy from Circle Craft, your purchase goes directly back to the maker behind the work. No middlemen. No corporate margin. Just a community of over 140 B.C. artists building something together, and a place where craft, creativity, and livelihood are all the same thing.

Made in British Columbia, Canada

Circle Craft is rooted in B.C., where 140 artists across the province draw inspiration from some of the most extraordinary landscapes on earth. From the rugged coastline to old-growth forests to the high desert of the interior, our makers are shaped by the place they call home. That connection to this land isn't just inspiration. It shows up in every piece, every medium, and every collection we carry.
