Who is the Asian photographer who takes photos of places with a dead girl in them?

Does anyone know the name of the Asian (I think Japanese) modern photographer who takes photos of places (landscapes, interiors etc) where there happens to be a dead girl on the floor (staged)?

It's recent stuff (within the last 5-10 years) and usually very colourful, vibrant stuff. Can't remember the artists name nor the name of any of the photos.

Any help appreciated :)

It wouldn't be Araki, would it?

Response by poster: I don't *think* it's Araki that I'm thinking of. Looking at his huge amount of work, the photos I'm thinking of are very different tonally.

The stuff I'm thinking of is really bubblegum vibrant - hyper-real neon japan stuff with pink cosplay and plastic.

At least in my memory :)

Reminds me of Who Killed Amanda Palmer.
