KYNE’s art is a delicate balance of nostalgia and modernity, rooted in the minimalist elegance of Showa-era aesthetics while infused with the raw energy of graffiti culture. His iconic monochromatic muses—direct yet enigmatic—carry the weight of Japan’s visual history, from the clean lines of Hisashi Eiguchi’s manga to the democratic ethos of street art. By bridging these seemingly disparate worlds, KYNE has created a unique visual language that is at once timeless and distinctly contemporary, embodying the cultural duality of reverence for the past and the boldness to reinvent it.

Kōrin Flowers and Water
Comments from the artist:
The work is based on a masterpiece fan painting by Ogata Kōrin, a genius painter from the Edo period. There is a river depicted in the upper part of the work, and under the representation of the river, on this side, so to speak, there are flowers. As commonly noted, when the camera was invented, it was proven that painters focus on their subjects of interest by placing them in prominent positions—in other words, that they employ the multi-point perspective of the human eye. This work embodies this idea.
