AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Original mixed media on cotton canvas, 117 × 89 cm.
Striking black silhouette of a face in profile – mystery, intensity, urban edge.

Bold neon-orange border frames the composition like a glowing halo.

Acrylic base

Signed Mikeidir 2025 (integrated, bottom right). Certificate of authenticity 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.
