In Rokudenashi-ko's artist's statement, she notes, “As an artist, I focus on the motif of my vagina, which I would refer to as 'Manko' (MK). My work opposes all discriminatory and ignorant treatment of the vagina...Vagina has been thought of as obscene because it has been overly hidden, although it is just a natural part of a woman's body. I wanted to make the vagina more casual and pop. That is how I came to make a vagina lampshade, a remote-controlled vagina car, vagina accessories, a vagina smartphone case, and so on.”
