Born in 1984 in Shizuoka prefecture. Interested in biology and folklore studies, Suzuki travels to different places to shoot his photography.

An artist Miho Shimizu and a photographer Ryuichiro Suzuki are working on a longterm collaborative project, which explores performing arts by taking their inspiration from the stage set like landscape of Kinosaki and the dreams which people see while sleeping. The residency in 2020 was postponed due to the COVID-19, but they started an online radio program as part of their research and creative process. During the residency at KIAC in 2021, they will continue to develop the project through interactions with local people.
