Natsumi Aoyagi INCUBATI0N 2014-2015 (2015)
Fuka nikki is a meta-documentary series. Through visuals and narrative, it brings to light the “self” living in Tokyo and its long-overlooked relationship with “nature” over the course of a search for the larva of a particular butterfly. It attempts to deconstruct the documentary in the context of film while inserting the self as it exists at various times throughout the creative process.

The video comprises a journey set in a real and CG world and reveals the relationship between the world and ourselves while questioning the materiality of images. The horse mackerel sculpture possesses both two-dimensionality and three-dimensionality and entices the viewer into a neutral world that could be either real or a dream.
