Rene Viner

 Looking forward to welcoming you back to PAOS 2023.

Decorative and functional ceramics and evocative semi-abstract paintings displayed in a beautiful setting. “Hand-building clay into objects inspired by nature’s forms and structures is an extension of my textured, atmospheric painting”.  I strive to create a beauty in imperfect harmony known in Japanas Wabi Sabi: Enjoying the moment and life’s simple pleasures…I hope these hand-built objects bring simple pleasure.

Sea, Sky and lanscape inspire my work.

These richly textured  and atmospheric paintings are semi abstract and expressionistic.

Rather than mimic nature, I prefer to describe the qualities of a subjective experience.

Ceramics is an exciting and natural progression of my work. Hand-building and manipulating clay into objects inspired by nature’s forms and structures is an extension of my textured, atmospheric paintings. Latest work includes ceramic Wall Art, currently showcased in galleries around the UK.
