I want people to first and foremost appreciate the dynamic movement and interesting forms of the sculptures. Since these are sculptures of breakdancers, I also want to paint them to give them the freedom to 'wear clothes.' That’s why I colour them.
Taku Obata
Limited edition
Edition of 150B BOY JUSHI dances into resin in Taku Obata's dynamic collectable sculpture.
Captured in motion, the dancer’s fluid pose pays homage to Taku’s own experience in Japanese breakdancing crews. B BOY’s agility shines in a balancing act of angular limbs – his signature oversized hat and futuristic goggles lay perfectly vertical as he throws his body down to the floor. Clad in hand-painted neon pink streetwear, the character's energy is brought to life in vivid colour.
