Celebrating the 60th anniversary of the automaker, Lamborghini partners with contemporary artist IKEUCHI for a custom Lamborghini Huracán STO “Time Chaser_111100” and a Time Gazer interactive art piece as part of its “Chasing the Future” initiative.
Having recently worked with Balenciaga for its Spring 2022 campaign and Medicom Toy for a BE@RBRICK figure, designer and artist Ikeuchi Hiroto is best known for his futuristic mechanical display pieces inspired by classic sci-fi series such as Star Wars and Gundam.
The Lamborghini Huracán STO Time Chaser_111100 is reminiscent of an advanced mecha featuring cyberpunk decals and a white, silver, and black color scheme with carbon fiber accents. The most definitive element of the supercar is a transparent unit mounted on the engine cover reminiscent of a supercomputer. IKEUCHI’s Time Gazer art piece resembles an ultra-advanced simulator or controller, incorporating a number of state-of-the-art computer pieces combined with premium automotive elements from Lamborghini. Both creations look to explore the concepts of time and timelessness through Lamborghinis’s ever-evolving technology and IKEUCHI’s cybernetics influence.
“We are very pleased to enshrine such a valuable collaboration with IKEUCHI who represents the future of Japan,” says Davide Sfrecola, Head of Japan Automobili Lamborghini, “From broken motherboards, plastic to electrical wiring intricately molded together to establish a cyberpunk apocalyptic aesthetic, he amplifies and investigates the connection and relationship between humans and technology in a country so rich in millennia-old traditions and contemporary culture.”
