Japanese artist Taku Obata unveils ‘B BOY SEIDOU’, a limited edition bronze sculpture in collaboration with London’s Avant Arte studio. The sculpture captures the essence of breakdancing, translating dynamic street dance movements into a static yet powerful form. Obata, both an artist and breakdancer, portrays a dancer frozen mid-motion with limbs stretched outward, wearing an oversized hat. This piece marks Obata’s shift from wooden sculptures to bronze casting, featuring a matte black finish. Measuring 10.6 x 8.2 x 7.8 inches, ‘B BOY SEIDOU’ engages viewers with its outward gaze, reflecting the performative nature of breakdancing. Limited to 25 pieces, each sculpture comes with a certificate of authenticity and is priced at $6,815. The acquisition process involves a raffle system closing on October 1 at 9 am ET. Obata’s work bridges street dance and fine art, challenging artistic boundaries
