Fuyuko Matsui (松井冬子, Matsui Fuyuko, born January 20, 1974)[1] is a contemporary Japanese artist, specialized in Nihonga paintings. She is known for her "new Kusozu" series. Matsui has been making her works based on her psychoanalysis results, putting heavy weight on her feelings and interests in violence, experience of loss, repression, stress, and trauma.
Through the process of self-investigation, she found her works universal to all living beings—life and death, sex, self-love, self-mutilation, self and the other, this world and the next, desire and passions.[2]
