Hajime Sorayama

























Hajime Sorayama (
空山基, Sorayama Hajime, born February 22, 1947) is a Japanese illustrator, known for his precisely detailed, erotic airbrush portrayals of women and feminine robots. Hajime Sorayama was born in 1947 in Imabari, Ehime prefecture, Japan. He received his basic education at Imabari Kita High School. In 1965 he was admitted to the Shikoku Gakuin University, where he began to study Greek and English literature. In 1967, after the publication of his first work, Pink Journal, he transferred to Tokyo’s Chuo Art School where he began to study art.Sorayama graduated in 1968 at the age of 21, and gained an appointment in an advertising agency. He became a freelance illustrator in 1972. In 1978 he drew his first robot. He resides in Tokyo. Sorayama’s work Sexy Robot, published by Genko-sha in 1983, made his organic robotic forms famous around the world. For the work, he used ideas from pin-up art, which in the book then appear as chrome-plated gynoids in suggestive poses. His next book, Pin-up (Graphic-sha, 1984), continue in the same line. A number of his other works similarly revolve around figures in suggestive poses, including highly realistic depictions in latex and leather.

QuEST - The Samba Thelonious Theory (TGA OFFICIAL VIDEO))


The Greedy Anorexics art collective take a moment to showcase the slick rhyming style of American rapper QuEST and his track "Samba Thelonious Theory" from the up and Coming Project THE REASON: A DEFENSE MECHANISM.
We chose this song because we relate to creative wordplay melodic sounding and wanted to share what good music can help a team create.
We cranked up the volume, kicked back and fell in love with the song instantly; the beat took us back so the video features vintage visuals almost like a video from the late 80's early 90's and some psychedelic graffiti painted by The Greedy Anorexics very own Sir Mone, Dfine, Kojey Radical, Kelz, Chris, Astro, Scooch one, Shucks One "The Idiot" and Tizer
