Majie

What Majie does

Majie is the sole-proprietorship business of French-born abstract and interactive artist Majie Lavergne, operating under the legal name "Majie Lavergne" and currently based in Lake Arenal, Costa Rica. The business creates and sells original paintings and interactive artworks organized into three series: the Love Series ("Love Always Falls Back on Its Feet") deconstructing the word LOVE into abstract forms; the Dance Series ("Dance of Opposites") combining geometric and organic shapes; and the Re-Create Series, a proprietary interactive concept where viewers physically move shapes across a magnetized background to compose their own designs. Paintings are executed in epoxy, acrylic, ink, and mixed media, with prices ranging from $250 to $900 USD across a catalog of more than 22 products. All sales are final one-time transactions with no subscription or licensing component.

The business sells through multiple complementary channels: a bilingual (English/Spanish) direct-to-consumer e-commerce store at majie.ca with shopping cart and secure checkout; participation in major art fairs including Art Basel Miami/Spectrum, New York Art Expo, and Art Vancouver; gallery representation via ArtBlend Gallery in Fort Lauderdale for the Re-Create series; and a recurring live art show program in Nuevo Arenal, Costa Rica. Marketing combines the company website, newsletter subscription, organic social media, and earned media coverage from CBC TV, CBC Radio Canada, Vogue Miami, PBQ News, Nanaimo Bulletin News, and La Source. The company has no outside funding, no parent entity, and no subsidiaries; ownership and operations are entirely consolidated in the individual artist.

The customer base consists of individual collectors and art enthusiasts purchasing original artwork for residential and commercial spaces, plus gallery and fair-based buyers in the US, France, Canada, and Costa Rica. The business has accumulated 28+ solo and group exhibitions across Paris, the US, and Canada since at least 2014, multiple Federation of Canadian Artists awards (3rd Place 2015, Honorable Mention and 2nd Place 2016, 1st Place 2018 and 2019), an ArtResin Artist win in 2026, and a 1st Place finish in the 2025 NARA Alcohol Inc. art competition. The Re-Create series has been the principal product differentiator since its 2016 debut and was featured in a CBC Radio Canada TV segment in 2016.

Direct peers

• Singulart: Online art gallery platform selling original contemporary paintings and sculpture directly from international artists to collectors. Comparable to Majie for the same reason — original-work DTC channel, abstract/contemporary focus, and direct artist-to-collector relationship.
• Saatchi Art: Online art marketplace specializing in original works from emerging and mid-career artists, sold directly to collectors globally. Highly comparable to Majie because both sell original artwork through a DTC e-commerce channel and rely on artist-led catalog presentation rather than traditional gallery intermediation.
• Artmajeur: Online marketplace for original contemporary art from international artists. Comparable to Majie for direct original-art sales, international artist base, and e-commerce-first distribution model serving collectors across geographies.
• Rise Art: Online gallery curating and selling original contemporary art directly to collectors, with a focus on emerging artists. Comparable to Majie through the same DTC original-art model, gallery-style curation, and emphasis on emerging-to-mid-market abstract and contemporary work.
• Artfinder: Curated online marketplace for original art from independent artists worldwide. Comparable to Majie's model of selling original abstract and contemporary works directly to consumers through an e-commerce storefront, with artist branding as the primary trust signal.

Emerging players

• Masterworks: Art investment platform that fractionalizes shares in blue-chip artworks. Comparable to Majie as a competing channel that shapes collector behavior in the original art market, although it operates at a different price tier and serves as an alternative asset class rather than a direct purchase route.

Broad incumbents

• Artsy: Large online art marketplace and database aggregating primary galleries, auction houses, and fairs. Comparable to Majie as a competing channel for collector attention and original-work discovery, though Artsy is broader (not artist-direct) and serves as an incumbent distribution alternative to the artist's own website.
• Artnet: Long-standing online art marketplace and auction database connecting galleries, auction houses, and collectors. Comparable to Majie as an incumbent channel where collectors discover and transact original work, but broader in scope and oriented toward established gallery and auction listings.
• Sotheby's: Global auction house operating across fine art categories including contemporary and abstract works. Comparable to Majie as a competing buyer-attention channel in the original art market, though Sotheby's serves a much higher price tier and institutional collector segment.
• Christie's: Global auction house for fine and contemporary art, including post-war and abstract categories aligned with Majie's stylistic lineage. Comparable as a competing original-art marketplace and aspirational exit channel for collectors who trade up from entry-level DTC purchases.
