Michael Kiré

Michael Kire’s art represents four decades of disciplined exploration into the subconscious through Automatic Drawing. His lines emerge with the same instinctive force found in Asiatic asemic script, forming a visual language that is immediate, intimate, and unmistakably his own. Embracing the Japanese concept of Ha, Kire positions his work as a continuation of a long artistic lineage—transformed through his mastery and contemporary vision.
In a market saturated with trends, Kire offers something increasingly rare: authenticity. His work reveals an artist deeply connected to the hidden structures of thought, a master whose presence in the contemporary art world feels both unexpected and essential.
