Castellani models the surface by acting on the nature of an “extraflexible” canvas. His project is based on one principle: refusing the planarity of the painting and aknowledging the properities of the medium: pliable, elastic, flexible. The materiality of the picture is Castellani’s works first subject.

This is what leads him to multiple experimentations from the most rectillinear geometry to the invention of random patterns scattered at will. The art of Castellani combines measure and rhythm, invention and technique.
