Spectre – Floor Lamp

Born in the early 1990s, Antoine Maurice lives and works in the Yvelines, France. A self-taught artist, he founded his studio in 2017 to develop a personal language, free from external constraints. Each project becomes part of an ongoing research process in which form is never considered an end in itself, but rather something to be revealed. Through wood, light and matter, Antoine Maurice seeks less to invent than to reveal. Inspired by the lines of the human body and the natural world, his works are progressively refined until their presence feels natural, almost inevitable. Black, texture and light become tools of the same visual language, inviting the eye, and then the hand, to discover what is not immediately revealed. Handcrafted, his creations retain their function without being limited by it. They become sculptural presences, conceived to inhabit space as much as the gaze. Each new work extends the same ongoing research: the development of a vocabulary of forms in which matter, light and perception come together in an increasingly essential expression.
