World Wide Panty Flash by Yukinori Dehara @ Giant Robot 2 (July 2 launch)
Giant Robot will be hosting "World Wide Panty Flash" - featuring paper clay sculptures by Japanese artist Yukinori Dehara, with a decidedly worldwide-recognized "deviant fetish": "Panchira" (which means "panty flash" in Japanese)!
“It sometimes takes a candid shot of the panty and the uncle is arrested though it is a shameful thing. Panchira is an important part of Japanese culture for men. People want panchira animation, idol, and figures because we can’t watch panchira at real world.” ”It is always noted in the commuter train and the town. I made figures imagining a lot of situations of panchira, so I love panchira.” ~ Yukinori Dehara
