The haunting images that make up today’s Google doodle are a tribute to Japanese artist Eiko Ishioka on what would have been her 79th birthday.
Recognized for her work creating Oscar-winning costume designs for movies like 1992’s “Bram Stoker’s Dracula” — or the costumes and set designs she created for Broadway’s “M. Butterfly” that earned her a multiple Tony nominations — Ishioka began her career as a graphic designer.
From the Google Doodle Blog:

Today’s doodle leads to a search for “Eiko Ishioka” and includes a slideshow with the following five images highlighting her work:
Google calls Ishioka iconic, and her artistry revolutionary.
