SCULPTED FIGHTING SPIRIT

Cast in bronze.
Made with soul.

Each bronze wrestler is sculpted by Murata himself. Every stance, every expression carries his respect for the athletes and his passion for the ring.

WRESTLERS AT MAN

Out of the ring.Around one table.

Even the fighters need a place to unwind. Wrestlers have come to MAN to share a glass with Murata and stand beside their bronze counterparts. These photos capture friendships forged through a love of wrestling — and evenings spent together.
