Born in Fukuoka in 1958, Yoshiyuki Miura graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich. A poet and philosopher, he has devoted his life to the creation of kinetic sculptures.
Faithful to his discreet nature, the artist limits his production to editions of five works, alongside occasional unique sculptures, making his work particularly exclusive.
In the pure tradition of kinetic art, Miura is a worthy heir to Jesús Rafael Soto. Entirely handcrafted, his sculptures, composed of colored steel needles or nylon threads, create a subtle symphony of light, shadow, and movement, from which emerge invisible forms, pyramids, and ethereal spheres. Playing hide-and-seek with the viewer’s gaze, they reveal their presence only fleetingly, in the very instant of movement.
The artist invites the public to question their own certainties through a playful and minimalist trompe-l’œil. A fourth dimension emerges in the imagination of each viewer. Interactive by day and mesmerizing by night, his sculptures radiate as if born from a magician’s illusion.
