BERNI
CASTILLO

I was born in Santiago Chili, where I studied Fine Arts(Universidad Católica de Chile) and Art Therapy(Universidad de Chile).
From 2002 to 2012 I’d developed différents ways -non classical supports or painting ways- to disarticulate the act of painting, in order to obtain aesthetical results different from the boundaries of the tableau and trying to include the space of exhibition doing all this actions.
Since 2016, when I moved to France to live in, I’ve been concentrated in the act of painting itself, staying focused in the use of the properties of this media such as the color, the stain, the layers, the brilliance, the opacity,..in short, the substance of painting including the boundaries I was trying to escape of.
All the subjects from the paintings series that I’ve made are closely related to my personal biographie.
