Biography
Born in 1969, Stéphane Castella lives and works in Toulouse. "I am a painter"! Me, who likes to work on and with my body. Me, who likes the enhancement of my excess. Me, who likes the erotic pleads of women's bodies. Me, who only talks about him. Him, who speaks only of me. I photograph my moments, I destroy myself, I protect myself, I build myself, I see myself… and suddenly time meets the evidence of my images and drawing, violent because impulsive , it fills free but defined spaces of a format. I draw, or rather I drive, my “realities.” Then I become calm and fill my images with pigmented stories. That's it, I think I understood, I spreads out on flat supports the intention of speaking to the other, a sort of writer without words. Maybe that is what it is to be a painter? Something bothers me in this story of a painter, I'm not just that! It's a little too reductive considering my physical and artistic circumference Yes I draw, I paint but I live, I eat and I drink… I write and I play e of the photo. Free figurator, already taken. Expressionist, already won over. The new figuration, too late. I'm not a Picasso, despite the popular reference, and my mustaches are closer to the spirit of the early twentieth century than to the Daliesque provocation. I am… me, or rather him… well I am Castella. "
