Junko Mizuno Tarot Collection Part 3

July 10–30, 2026

Junko Mizuno (pronounced: JOON-koh mi-ZOO-noh)
b. May 27, 1973, Tokyo Japan

Having grown up in Tokyo, Junko Mizuno is a self-taught artist recognized for her unique visual iconography of powerful and often sexy women. Although her art refuses to be categorized, much of it is based on Japanese pop culture from '70s and '80s with the sources of her inspiration stemming from fetish art, folk art, religious art, psychedelic art, pin-up art, advertising art, vintage toys, fashion, comic, food, nature, movies, TV shows, video games… almost everything that surrounds her. Currently residing in San Francisco, she is constantly working on new comics, paintings, illustrations, and product designs ranging from toy figures to T-shirts. Her work has been featured in stores, museums, and fine art galleries around the world.

Motivated by the pure pleasure of creating art, she celebrates the power of women and creates a universe of them, full of energy, both positive and negative. 

Tarot Collection Part 3

This is the third exhibition in the Junko Mizuno Tarot Project, which began in 2023 to fulfill my long-held dream of creating a complete deck of original tarot cards. Drawing on characters from my previous works - including comics, paintings, figures, gig posters, and more - I am designing all 78 cards, with the project scheduled for completion by the end of 2026. The finished artwork will be published as a complete tarot deck.
