Ryoko Suzuki (born 1970 in Hokkaido, Japan) is a contemporary Japanese artist, using photography as her main medium.
Her work uses highly constructed images to comment on the designated social roles of women living in contemporary Japan.
Her photographs approach the issue of how women and girls are represented in society and the media, literally comparing her own image to cartoon sex objects of contemporary popular culture.
[3] In her series Anikora, Suzuki adapts the idol collage (aidoru koraju), often used to superimpose famous women's faces onto nude bodies.
[4] Her Blind triptych depicts the artist, with her face wrapped up and bound by a strip of blood-covered pigskin, to illustrate and symbolize Japanese women's oppression.
