Fuko Suzuki aims to create fictitious artifacts from a place that does not exist. As a cross cultural individual she finds comfort in her surroundings while she has never truly belonged. Her work evokes the sense of a dream-like state of a place that is both nowhere but everywhere, known and unknown.
Suzuki works on re-establishing ritual within her own practice through the traditionally female acts of sewing and weaving. She creates her own myth through her paintings, drawings and non-traditional handpoke tattooing inspired by imagery from Western mythology and Japanese ukiyo-e. Suzuki’s work emphasises the importance of ritualistic process when conjuring her objects that dwell in the make-believe.
