Yukinori Dehara returns from Japan to Giant Robot 2 for his body slamming Nendo Pro Wrestling World Tour (June 29th – July 24th). Nendo is a brand of poly-clay that Dehara uses in making his dope figures. It was a beautiful evening outside with a magnificent sunset to die for and I got to meet some awesome new friends like Hana and Roger from Supahcute.  Dehara is always thinking of crazy themes and characters in sculptures, it’s crazy. His new exclusive Dehara X Hello Kitty figures, along with many cool items were also for sale. Had a great night.
Peace!

Giant Robot is proud to host Nendo Pro Wrestling – clay sculptures by Yukinori Dehara. Wrestling culture has been popular throughout contemporary Japanese popular culture. Alongside of Mexico and the US, the wrestling scene has continued alongside and overlapping with Sentai (Power Rangers) shows. Superheroes have traversed in each others genres. We’ll be sure to feature clay sculptures and more from Yukinori Dehara! As with his previous exhibitions, Dehara’s work is often containing deep ideologies of our culture presented through his colorful characters.
