Daniel Arsham - Mini Full Metal Mustard (2026)

Mini Full Metal Mustard (2026) Artist: Hajime Sorayama Title: Mini Full Metal Mustard Collaboration: Sorayama × YooBSS Medium: Chrome-finish metal electric shaver — limited edition art object Type: Limited edition functional art object / designer collectible Description: Mini Full Metal Mustard is a collaboration between Hajime Sorayama — the Japanese artist whose hyper-realistic paintings of chrome robots and sexualised mechanoids have made him one of the most influential visual artists of the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries — and YooBSS, producing a miniature electric shaver rendered entirely in Sorayama's signature chrome aesthetic. The result is an object that occupies the space between industrial design, fine art collectible, and fetish object in the most precise and deliberate sense: a functional tool elevated by its surface treatment and its authorial context into something that demands to be looked at as much as used. The chrome finish — mirror-polished, reflective, cold to the eye and warm to the touch — is Sorayama's most personal material language. Since the 1970s he has deployed this aesthetic in paintings of female androids and mechanical organisms that blur the boundary between the organic and the manufactured, the erotic and the mechanical, the human and the posthuman. The shaver, in this context, is not a departure from that practice but an extension of it: the same chrome surface, the same fetishisation of industrial finish, applied to an object of intimate daily grooming. Gold accents — on the shaving heads and branding badge — introduce a luxury register that elevates the piece further, situating it alongside Sorayama's collaborations with Sony, Medicom, and Supreme as one of the defining objects of the contemporary art-design crossover.
