Stéphane Fauchille was born in 1966 in Amiens, France. He is a painter, sculptor, illustrator. 1987: CIP School of Fine Arts of Tourcoing. 1991: Bachelor’s degree in Fine Arts from Paris I Sorbonne. His work is close to the spirit of Singular Arts. Figurative painter and storyteller, he draws inspiration from medieval fables, science fiction, ethnology, and comics to create fantastical universes in imaginary environments. Stéphane Fauchille or the inventive magic of the world’s images “In the assumed ignorance of mental limits and in the stunning invention of his graphic findings, the creative effervescence is the constant artistic territory of Stéphane Fauchille. Fluid and sensitive, his refined chromatic palette oxygenates the expanse. Vibrant, his generous, whimsical, incandescent, ironic, and jubilant art first springs from a universally recognized cultural reference point, such as, for example, a brave Egyptian deity, a friendly Michelin man, a historically astounded Raft, or, often favored, the naive, familiar, and magical figure of the respected indigenous individual, a central emblem of the happy, scattered constellation of each of his paintings. From this, this high-life dreamer invents wildly, and in a surprising path full of surprises, he endlessly pushes the boundaries of the imaginary. Hence the extraordinary impact of his vital passion for images, as he embraces the diversity of icons inspired by the world. Stéphane Fauchille‘s art is without mental handcuffs, without ideological crutches, and without religious straitjackets. Art of sharing and momentum, funny and soothing, and of an inventive and travelling suppleness. There is never any aggressiveness in his enjoyable and libertarian scores. A fabulous digger, always in total creative freedom, he playfully experiments in the scattered meanders of our lived history. His open and plural figuration interrupts the peaceful course of the expected, and dazzlingly ranshackles the tired sclerosis of surfaces. But Stéphane Fauchille, a fine watchman of humanity, controls wonderfully, and keeps deep down the sense of true exchange, and that of the tenuous wonders to be seen and to be seen. With him, there is no dominant centre, and the eye everywhere wanders. And each living work is born of an active and masterful fairy tale.” Christian Noorbergen MAIN EXHIBITIONS : 2026 : Galerie Claire Corcia, Paris 2025 : Exposition collective, « l’Exposition de l’Amour » Centre artistique de Verderonne. « Les divergens », Galerie Claire Corcia, Paris. « Fiesta Jungle » Galerie des Ursulines (Ecole des Beaux-Arts), Tourcoing. 2024 : Exposition collective, « Le Dessin » Galerie Palatisse, Troye.
