AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Original mixed media on linen canvas, 130 × 97 cm.
Five black silhouettes of children playing football – joy, movement, urban energy.
Giant white Swoosh floats like a comet above the scene.
Signe Mikeidir 2025 (integrated, bottom right). Certificate included.
Ship in a box with careful packaging.
Mike Idir is a Paris-based visual artist whose work explores power, grace, and contemporary identity through a minimalist and high-contrast aesthetic.
Having lived in England from 2001 to 2010, he developed a hybrid sensibility shaped by both British urban culture and the refined clarity of European design. This dual influence informs his approach to light, form, and modern symbolism.
Working primarily with acrylic, he uses sharp contrasts, clean forms, and expressive shadows to reveal inner strength, sensuality, and determination. Moving between intimacy and energy, his visual language creates powerful contemporary icons — feminine silhouettes, symbolic objects, and moments frozen in expressive tension.
