4AM Demon is an original artwork by Margaux, painted at Print Club during the hot spring-summer of 2025. This piece is part of an exclusive series created at Print Club London and reflects a playful yet piercing moment of intimacy. It captures the surreal experience of being jolted awake by a huge ginger cat, an embodiment of chaotic affection and sharp, demanding love. Printed on 300gsm Fabriano paper, it is a 1/1 original.
The companion to 2 AM Demon — the same cat, two hours later. The escalation is the joke and the truth: at 4am the cat's demands become more existential, the experience of being woken sliding from annoying toward something stranger. The pair makes a diptych of nocturnal disruption. Margaux Carpentier is a French-born artist based in London. Our guide to investing in original artwork is worth reading. Signed. £625.
ABOUT THE ARTIST
Margaux Carpentier
Margaux Carpentier is a French-born artist based in Stoke Newington, London who studied in Paris and Surrey. She works across screen printing, painting, drawing, spray paint, ceramics and large-scale murals — her practice built around storytelling through symbolic imagery, created entirely by hand using analogue methods. Her work addresses the head, heart, gut and flesh: desire, connection and the vibrant oddity of existence rendered in bold, unapologetic figures and folk-inflected symbols. She is part of Animaux Circus studio and the Puck collective, and is represented by Art Friend. She was campaign artist for Affordable Art Fair Battersea Spring 2025 and has painted murals at London Zoo and Homerton Hospital. In her own words: ‘Creation acts as a window, an unlimited access to colour and pleasure.’
