Japanese artist Hajime Sorayama is best known for creating futuristic female robots — and in 2020, he brought them to life at the Tokyo Pop Underground exhibit.
Sorayama’s chrome-plated sculptures merge eroticism, machinery, and fantasy, blending human sensuality with sci-fi precision. His iconic “S*xy Robots” — first conceptualized in the ’70s — have influenced everything from high fashion to album covers and even tech design.
Displayed in a hall of mirrors, the metallic female androids stand tall in illuminated glass cases, confronting viewers with their strikingly sleek anatomy and cybernetic perfection. Their highly reflective surfaces and flawless curves blur the line between object and idol — a signature element of Sorayama’s work.
The exhibit was more than a showcase — it was an immersive experience that felt like stepping into a dystopian future where beauty, artificiality, and fetishism collide.
