Trained as an illustrator and industrial designer, Hajime Sorayama first gained international recognition for his role in the design of Sony s original AIBO robotic dog in 1999. His artistic practice soon expanded into a highly distinctive body of work most notably his hyper-realistic, often provocative depictions of gynoid figures that has drawn sustained critical and popular attention for over three decades. Blending meticulous realism with a persistent fascination with futurism, Sorayama has produced a vast and influential oeuvre encompassing sketches, paintings, sculptures, and large-scale installations. His work has been exhibited internationally and positioned him among the most significant figures in Japanese pop art, alongside Takashi Murakami, Yayoi Kusama, and Keiichi Tanaami. Beyond the gallery, Sorayama s imagery has permeated popular culture through major fashion collaborations and high-profile cultural moments, including large-scale sculptural works and global stage productions. Published on the occasion of a traveling retrospective, this volume presents newly produced works alongside key historical pieces, offering a focused examination of Sorayama s enduring impact on contemporary art and visual culture. Featuring a selection of newly completed works alongside classic pieces, the book serves as an essential reference for scholars, collectors, and audiences interested in science fiction, design, and the evolving dialogue between art and popular culture.
Hajime Sorayama is a Japanese artist and industrial designer. Reiko Tsubaki is a curator at the Mori Art Museum. Stella McCartney is a British clothing designer and founder of her eponymous label.
