About the Item

Console carved in solid oak stained with Indian ink. Hoon Moreau is inspired by the beauty of the elements that touch it, such as the splendors of nature, jewelry or haute couture, to create unique and functional furniture. The Metaphysics series consists of a desk and console in solid oak, as well as a bronze light fixture. These works are composed of several elements that fit together, slip into each other. Each element is not made to exist alone and it finds its complementarity by combining with the other. Massive and yet airy, curved then angular, two elements are realized in the balance of their differences at very specific points. For this series “Metaphysics of Light”, Hoon Moreau imagined a central piece of wood representing the agglomerated buildings of a city, or characters huddled together. The light that gently emanates from the bronze structure symbolizes the complementarity of the universe, a circle in which the complexity of the human world is in turn inscribed. This envelope forms a whole with irregularities that appear to be perfect. Metaphysics expresses in refined forms the relationship of interdependence that binds humans, their technology and nature. Beings are all connected according to the laws of the latter, balanced on a complementarity that testifies to the need to cohabit in order to exist. Unique piece signed by the artist Hoon Moreau is a painter, sculptor and designer. Born in Seoul in 1967, graduated in 1991 and 1998, respectively from Fine Arts from the National University of Seoul, she continued her studies in Interior Architecture and Environmental Design from the Camondo School in Paris. This dual skill, associated with his Franco-Korean sensitivity, ensures him numerous collaborations to realize the interior architecture and furniture of museums, palaces, luxury hotels, palaces, in particular within large architectural firms, such as Wilmotte & Partners, for 20 years. Passionate about sculpture since her beginnings, this interior architect and designer, who is directly inspired by the beauty of the elements that touch her, such as the splendors of nature, jewelry or haute couture, launched in 2014 l he daring challenge to redefine our relationship to art by intimately linking sculpture and functionality for artist’s furniture. Inspired by the world around us – stones like humans, landscapes or stories that relate in mirror – Hoon Moreau tries to transcribe them through her visual language in the furniture she creates. Poems, songs of joy, fairy tales or nostalgic reminiscences intermingle in an insane harmony in motion. It offers to the gaze, chests of drawers, tables, lamps or screens, in a set where delicate taut lines are linked, monochrome colored shades, dense presences which take flight. Time and dreams come together here. The secret movement of singular beauty appears and invites itself into our daily lives. His sculpted furniture marries poetic creativity and meticulous realization, shattering the barrier between art and life, beauty and utility. In search of a symbiosis, on the one hand between the quintessence of nature and the crystallization of sublime beauty, on the other hand between artistic creation and functionality, Hoon Moreau offers a new aesthetic adventure that becomes reality.
