In Tokyo-based photographer and Ladies Lotto member Becky Yee's latest show, she explores one man and his extensive collection of pleasure dolls. Commonly known as "Dutch wives" in Japan, these dolls serve as companions for men who are seeking pleasure at its height of perfection -- women who please and are utterly obedient -- outside of human sexual relations. While the show may not be everyone's cup of tea; it examines the role sex, intimacy, relationship dynamics and sexuality play in an exceedingly demanding culture.
