Amaury Maillet is a self-taught artist who explored art in Provence and Saint Martin in his childhood. He honed his drawing, painting, and sculpture skills under the guidance of his great-uncle, a friend of Calder, absorbing a taste for geometric abstraction and purity. Despite pursuing studies in the hospitality industry, Maillet returned to his passion for art later in life, creating intricate mobiles that reflect maturity and precision.

His works captivate with their complex yet poetic structures, inviting contemplation.  

Maillet's technique is flawless, echoing Calder's mobiles but with his distinctive touch.  

Inspired by nature's Fibonacci sequence and logarithmic spirals, his mobiles mirror the mathematical harmony found in the natural world.

Drawing from his childhood memories of fauna and flora, Maillet mobiles evoke a sense of freedom and lightness, responding dynamically to the wind's whims. In contrast to static sculptures, his creations engage in a playful dance with nature, embodying a harmonious interplay between man-made geometry and natural forces.
