The Agency

Shirley & Celine.
Founded in 2024 by lifelong friends Céline and Shirley, Mouvance Noire – Design is a curatorial agency born from a shared passion for collectible furniture and art objects.
Rooted in the Caribbean and connected to global cultures, the agency celebrates contemporary design, craftsmanship, and cultural heritage.
​
We travel across the Caribbean, Africa, and beyond to uncover timeless pieces and the stories of their makers. Works that explore identity, memory, and modernity. For us, art and design are bridges, connecting people, cultures, and ideas.
​
Céline is based in Martinique, while Shirley divides her time between Toronto, Paris, and Martinique.
​
At the heart of our mission is the pursuit of meaning, authenticity, and sustainability. Each piece we select is crafted with care, using ethical and eco-conscious practices that honor local artisanship.
More than objects, our collections offer stories, values, and a vision of design that is both beautiful and responsible.
​
Through Mouvance Noire, our clients don’t just acquire design—they embrace a more conscious way of living.
